I just setup shorewall from the Redhat rpm's linked off the shorewall page. Its 
up and running but I have some simple questions.

When I installed CentOS, I disabled the firewall (both iptables and ip6tables 
service were left running though). How does shorewall interact with upstreams 
iptables configuration? Would it always overwrite anything configured with its 
own configuration once started?

How is system security handled while booting, when does shorewall start 
protecting the machine during boot? Is there a period of time when the machine 
may be unprotected?

Thanks for any pointers!
