|
|
|
<para>This file does not exist by default. You may create the file if you
|
|
want to change the directory used by Shorewall6 Lite to store state
|
|
information, including compiled firewall scripts. By default, the
|
|
directory used is <filename>/var/lib/shorewall6-lite/</filename>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The file contains a single variable assignment:</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><option>VARDIR=</option><replaceable>directory</replaceable></para>
|
|
|
|
<para>where <replaceable>directory</replaceable> is the name of a
|
|
directory. If you add this file, you should copy the files from
|
|
<filename>/var/lib/shorewall6-lite</filename> to the new directory before
|
|
performing a <command>shorewall6-lite restart</command>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<note>
|
|
<para>Beginning with Shorewall 4.5.2, use of this file is deprecated in
|
|
favor of specifying VARDIR in the <filename>shorewallrc</filename> file
|
|
used during installation of Shorewall Core. While the name of the
|
|
variable remains VARDIR, the meaning is slightly different. When set in
|
|
shorewallrc, Shorewall6 Lite will create a directory under the specified
|
|
path name to hold state information.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Example:</para>
|
|
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
<para>VARDIR=<filename>/opt/var/lib/</filename></para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The state directory for Shorewall Lite will be
|
|
<filename>/opt/var/lib/shorewall6-lite</filename>.</para>
|
|
</blockquote>
|
|
|
|
<para>When VARDIR is set in
|
|
<filename>/etc/shorewall6-lite/vardir</filename>, Shorewall Lite will
|
|
save its state in the <replaceable>directory</replaceable>
|
|
specified.</para>
