<p><strong>Shorewall includes
a </strong><a href="#fallback"><strong>fallback script</strong></a><strong>
and an </strong><a href="#uninstall"><strong>uninstall script</strong></a><strong>.</strong></p>
<h2><a name="fallback"></a>Falling Back to the Previous Version of Shorewall
using the Fallback Script</h2>
<p>If you install Shorewall and discover that
it doesn't work for you, you can fall back to your previously
installed version. To do that:</p>
<ul>
<li>cd to the distribution directory for the version
of Seattle Firewall <u>that you are
currently running </u>(NOT the version
that you want to fall back to).</li>
<li>Type &quot;./fallback.sh&quot;</li>
</ul>
<h3><strong><u>Warning:</u> The fallback script
will replace /etc/shorewall/policy, /etc/shorewall/rules, /etc/shorewall/interfaces,
/etc/shorewall/nat, /etc/shorewall/proxyarp and /etc/shorewall/masq with the version of
these files from before the current version was installed. Any
changes to any of these files will be lost.</strong></h3>
<h2><a name="rpm"></a>Falling Back to the Previous Version of Shorewall using
rpm</h2>
<p>If your previous version of Shorewall was
installed using RPM, you may fall back to that version by typing
&quot;rpm -Uvh --force &lt;old rpm&gt;&quot; at a root shell
prompt (Example: &quot;rpm -Uvh --force /downloads/shorewall-3.1=0noarch.rpm&quot; would fall back to the 3.1-0
version of Shorewall).</p>
<h2><a name="uninstall"></a>Uninstalling Shorewall</h2>
<p>If you no longer wish to use Shorewall, you
may remove it by:</p>
<ul>
<li>cd to the distribution directory for the version
of Shorewall that you have installed.</li>
<li>type &quot;./uninstall.sh&quot;</li>
</ul>
<p>If you installed using an rpm, at a root shell prompt
type &quot;rpm -e shorewall&quot;.</p>
