Do you really need to rename shorewall to shorewall-postnet in /etc/init.d ?
It would unnecessary break admin script to restart the firewall (and you
will have to manage a complex pre/postinst to handle cases where the admin
changed this conffile).

Sure.  A package can install as many init scripts as it wants and needs.



What about putting it's startup script in /etc/network/if-up.d/?  Or 
am I misinterpreting it's purpose?

Yup, that looks right to me, although of course these days the LSB headers
in the scripts are more important (thankfully) than the defaults given to
dh_installinit.

I think that -- is now preferred over -u for passing extra parameters
along through the debhelper script, although of course both work.

So, currently the shorewall package ships debian/shorewall.init, which
is accompanied by the following debian/rules entry:

dh_installinit --no-start -u"start 40 S . stop 89 0 6 ."

If I read the dh_installinit manpage correctly, then I can ship:

debian/shorewall.shorewall-prenet.init
debian/shorewall.shorewall-postnet.init

Then in debian/rules I would have:

dh_installinit --no-start --name=shorewall-prenet -u"start 35 S . stop 89 0 6 ."
dh_installinit --no-start --name=shorewall-postnet -u"start 40 S . stop 89 0 6 
."

The idea is to have one init script that runs before S40networking and
another that runs after.  Does this seem right?

I will still have to figure out the right start and stop values, but I
just want to make sure I generally have the mechanics right.

Regards,
