I had hoped to be able to avoid another RC but there have been enough
changes that I've decided that the safe thing to do is to release RC3.

http://www1.shorewall.net/pub/shorewall/development/3.4/shorewall-3.4.0-RC3/
ftp://ftp1.shorewall.net/pub/shorewall/development/3.4/shorewall-3.4.0-RC3/

Problems Corrected in 3.4.0 RC3

1)  The route_rules file was being ignored. This has been corrected.

2)  If an IP range was specified in a 'drop' or 'reject' command
    (including the logging forms) and a 'shorewall save' was performed,
    then the next time that Shorewall was restarted, new connections
    from outside the firewall were totally blocked.

3)  If a 'start' or restart' command failed during the compile phase,
    /sbin/shorewall erroneously returned an exit status of 0.

4)  If IMPLICIT_CONTINUE=Yes was in effect, then sub-zones received the
    implicit CONTINUE policy for their intra-zone traffic (rather than
    the implicit ACCEPT policy for such traffic). This could cause
    intra-zone traffic to be rejected by rules for one of the
    parent zones.

Other Changes in 3.4.0 RC3

1)  A warning is now issued when 'loose' and 'balance' are specified
    together for a provider. This combination of options can lead to packets
    being dropped as 'martians'.

2)  If the 'setkey' program is installed, then the IPSEC SPD and SAD
    are displayed in the output of "shorewall[-lite] dump. All key
    information (E: and A: lines) is suppressed in the command output
    so that the output of "dump" cannot be used to breach IPSEC
    security.
