You might want to reconsider that statement, something more like:

Shorewall is very powerful, but 9.0 had some bugs which caused everyone
to think that it was due to the change from bastille to shorewall. Also,
the firewall configuration tool is slightly limited for machines which
do internet connection sharing.

I have 6+ Mandrake 8.2 with MNF or Mandrake 9.0 with MNF machines in
production, and shorewall rocks.
