Hi, I am getting multiple reports regarding a shorewall-4.6.4.1 startup error:
> * Starting shorewall ... > /var/lib/shorewall/firewall: line 2080: echo: write error: No such file or > directory > WARNING: Unable to set log backend to ipt_LOG I see this error also on some of my systems but not all. Restarting shorewall always works. And the command around line 2080 are all fine.. If I try to set "net.netfilter.nf_log.2=ipt_LOG" using sysctl on boot I am getting the same error. The problem seems to be that the LOG backend module (ipt_LOG in my case) wasn't loaded yet (proof: If I make sure that ipt_LOG loads early on boot, everything works). So it seems like were are missing a modprobe in shorewall before setting the LOG backend... If there IS a modprobe call *before* setting nf_log this seems to be a timing issue (module load not yet finished)... -Thomas ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Comprehensive Server Monitoring with Site24x7.
