Hello,

Concerning the default config of shorewall, I suggest that the default rule for 
wan->all is set to DROP rather than REJECT. I think it's better in term of security 
(ref. Linux firewalls by R.L. Ziegler).
In the same spirit, for boxes connected by ADSL or dial-up (and perhaps ISDN but I 
don't know), I suggest that the interface defined for wan is set up to ppp+. By 
experience, I've started by using eth1 (where is connected by ADSL modem) and spent 
some time to find why my connection was not working.

Cheers

Marc Bethenod
