The server hosting www.shorewall.net and ftp.shorewall.net failed last week and I have been hosting these sites on my small server here in my home. Yesterday, we switched to using another small low-volume server until the main one is back up (won't happen until the week of Thanksgiving). DNS problems at the backup hosting company resulted in www.shorewall.net being unavailable for a time. Everything should be working now -- if not, it would be more appropriate to send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] rather than complaining on the Leaf list. > > I get a lot of door-knockers on 445, so I'd be inclined to make all but > 113 DROP if the only impact is "slightly more chatter from Windows hosts > on the LAN".
