That is correct. With current versions of Shorewall, the exit code from "shorewall status" reflects the state. If the exit code is zero, then Shorewall is started. If the exit code is non-zero, then Shorewall is not started. -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
