Shorewall 5.2.0 RC 2 is now available for testing. Problems Corrected since RC 1:
1) Previously, use of &lo would result in an error:
ERROR: Can't determine the IP address of lo: Firewall state not
changed
That problem has been corrected such that &lo always expands to
127.0.0.1 (IPv4) or ::1 (IPv6).
New Features since RC 1:
1) Previously, the maximum depth of INCLUDEs was four (although the
documentation gave the limit as three). Beginning with this
release, that limit has been raised to 20.
2) Support for the deprecated 'masq' file has been deleted. Any
existing 'masq' file will automatically be converted to the
equivalent 'snat' file.
3) Three new shorewall commands have been implemented:
a) show rc
Displays the contents of the shorewallrc file
($SHAREDIR/shorewall/shorewallrc).
b) getcaps
Generates a capabilities file on a remote system and copies it
to a directory on the local system.
c) getrc
Copies the shorewallrc file from a remote system to a directory
on the local system.
See shorewall(8) for details.
