hi, we use shorewall for many years. noew we update our firewall to centos 5.2. where run shorewall-lite and there is an internal server which is the administrative system. now the following happend. after the firewall reboot shorewall (or iptables or the system denied all external connections (although shorewall-lite is started). now if i restart it: /sbin/service shorewall-lite restart then everything work. or if from the administrative system i issue a: /sbin/shorewall reload -s -c portal than it also works again. so each of the above command is enough. so it was easy to find a workaround i simple put into rc.local: /sbin/service shorewall-lite restart but imho it's still a bug and i don't know how to find the reason. the only difference what i find in the sysinit script is -f option to shorewall but in /var/lib/shorewall-lite/ the file firewall and restore are the same. if i comment out the -f option then it's working without any workaround (or this is the workaround). so what can be the reason?
