Edward

Firstly sorry for getting your name wrong before.

The testing that I have done so far has been very limited. I have been trying 
to brake shorewall by what ever means possible. 
With the exception of last weekend, I had not tried to construct any real 
firewall scenarios. Those that I had constructed were very simple, the type 
you might find in a domestic environment. I manually inspected the iptables 
rules and subjected just one configuration to a port scan.

The PC that I used for the test, has just one NIC card which means that none 
of the configurations has been subject to any 'proper' testing in a live 
environment.

Additionally, I have not tested VPN, tunnels, providers, or traffic shaping. I 
have no experience in using those features.

In short, shorewall 3.9 needs considerably more testing before I would advise 
anybody to use it in a production environment. 

Steven.
