Thanks Tom and Tuomo for the confirmation. I will use thus the same strategy, run upgrade after update. @Tuomo, did you apply this unconditionnally even for minor update ? @Tom I will try to find a still running old shorewall with nat file (but not sure there's still one using that) and recheck the upgrade process with dumping shorewall state before after. -- Bruno Friedmann Ioda-Net Sàrl www.ioda-net.ch Bareos Partner, openSUSE Member, fsfe supporter GPG KEY : D5C9B751C4653227 irc: tigerfoot _______________________________________________ Shorewall-devel mailing list Shorewall-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/shorewall-devel
