From http://www.shorewall.net/Introduction.html: Shorewall is not a daemon. Once Shorewall has configured Netfilter, it's job is complete and there is no “Shorewall process” left running in your system. It follows that Shorewall itself cannot monitor anything. If you have an external application that monitors traffic and decides that it wants to block traffic from a particular address, it can do so by using the "shorewall drop" or "shorewall reject" commands. -Tom -- Tom Eastep \ Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool Shoreline, \ http://shorewall.net Washington USA \ [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP Public Key \ https://lists.shorewall.net/teastep.pgp.key
