<h2 align="left">What is it?</h2>
<p>The Shoreline Firewall, more commonly known as "Shorewall", is a
<a href="http://www.netfilter.org">Netfilter</a> (iptables) based firewall
that can be used on a dedicated firewall system, a multi-function
gateway/router/server or on a standalone GNU/Linux system.</p>

<h2>Running Shorewall on Mandrake with a two-interface setup?</h2>
If so, almost <b>NOTHING </b>on this site will apply directly to your setup.
If you want to use the documentation that you find here, it is best if you
uninstall what you have and install a setup that matches the documentation
on this site. See the <a href="two-interface.htm">Two-interface QuickStart
Guide</a> for details.<br>
<h2> Getting Started with Shorewall</h2>
New to Shorewall? Start by selecting the <a
href="shorewall_quickstart_guide.htm">QuickStart Guide</a> that most closely
match your environment and follow the step by step instructions.<br>

<p><b>5/18/2003 - Shorewall 1.4.3 </b><b><img border="0"
src="images/new10.gif" width="28" height="12" alt="(New)">
</b><br>
</p>
<20><><EFBFBD> <b>Problems Corrected:<br>
</b>
<ol>
<li>There were several cases where Shorewall would fail to remove
a temporary directory from /tmp. These cases have been corrected.</li>
<li>The rules for allowing all traffic via the loopback interface
have been moved to before the rule that drops status=INVALID packets. This
insures that all loopback traffic is allowed even if Netfilter connection
tracking is confused.</li>
</ol>
<20><><EFBFBD> <b>New Features:<br>
</b>
<ol>
<li><EFBFBD><a href="6to4.htm">IPV6-IPV4 (6to4) tunnels are</a> now supported
in the /etc/shorewall/tunnels file.</li>
<li>Shorewall can now be easily integrated with fireparse (http://www.fireparse.com)
by setting LOGMARKER="fp=" in <a href="Documentation.htm#Conf">/etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf.</a>
Note: You may not use ULOG with fireparse unless you modify fireparse. </li>

<p><b>4/12/2002 - Greater Seattle Linux Users Group Presentation</b><b>
</b></p>
<blockquote>This morning, I gave <a href="GSLUG.htm" target="_top">a
Shorewall presentation to GSLUG</a>. The presentation is in
HTML format but was generated from Microsoft PowerPoint and is best viewed
using Internet Explorer (although Konqueror also seems to work reasonably
well as does Opera 7.1.0). Neither Opera 6 nor Netscape work well to
view the presentation.<br>
