I don't see how. Shorewall isn't a daemon; it only runs during
start/stop/restart operations so Shorewall certainly can't go about adding
rules dynamically when people do something on a web base.

Shorewall does not have a "whitelist' capability. You *can* do the following
though in your /etc/shorewall/rules:

NONAT           loc:+whitelist  net     tcp     80
REDIRECT        loc             80      tcp     80

If 'whitelist' is a MAC address ipset then adding MAC addresses to the IPSET
will allow those addresses access to the net.

One fly in that ointment is that I don't believe FC6 includes ipset support.
