Shorewall 5.2.0 RC 1 is now available for testing. Problems Corrected:
1) This release includes defect repair through Shorewall 5.1.12.2.
New Features:
1) When AUTOMAKE=Yes, each directory in the CONFIG_PATH was originally
searched recursively for files newer than the compiled script. That
was changed in Shorewall 5.1.10.2 such that only the listed
directories themselves were searched. That broke some
configurations that played tricks with embedded SHELL such as:
SHELL cat /etc/shorewall/rules.d/loc/*.rules
Prior to 5.1.10.2, a change to a file in or adding a file to
/etc/shorewall/rules.d/loc/ would trigger recompilation. Beginning
with 5.1.10.2, such changes would not trigger
recompilation.
Beginning with this release, the pre-5.1.10.2 behavior can be
obtained by setting AUTOMAKE=recursive.
Also beginning with this release, AUTOMAKE may be set to a numeric
<depth> which specifies how deeply each listed directory is to be
searched. AUTOMAKE=1 only searches each directory itself and is
equivalent to AUTOMAKE=Yes. AUTOMAKE=2 will search each directory
and its immediate sub-directories; AUTOMAKE=3 will search each
diretory, each of its immediate sub-directories, and each of their
immediate sub-directories, etc.
Thank you for testing,
-Tom
