Quick questions to you all:

I wish to define a couple of ipsets (3 ip sets containing about 17,000+ 
subnets plus about 10 portmap sets containing just port numbers). The IP 
sets (the large ones) are mainly to include them in my blacklist, but I 
would also like to use the portmap sets in my rules file for port matching.

I figured how to define/use the IP port sets, i.e.:

---blacklist-----------
#ADDRESS/SUBNET         PROTOCOL        PORT
+blacklisted
#LAST LINE -- ADD YOUR ENTRIES BEFORE THIS ONE -- DO NOT REMOVE
----------------------
(the 'blacklisted' set is loaded automatically when shorewall starts - 
in the init file).

So, that part works as expected, though I have a query - Does the above 
blocks incoming AS WELL AS outgoing connections to those subnets 
included in the ip set? Also, I see that there are two additional 
options defined in the manual - 'src' and 'dst', i.e. 
+blacklisted[src,dst] may also be used. What is the purpose and 
functionality of these 2 options? The manual contains about a single 
line mentioning this and no other explanation is given - at least I 
could not find any!


Second query - I could not manage to make my portmap sets work in my 
shorewall rules file. When I try the following:

--------rules-------
#############################################################################################################
#ACTION                 SOURCE                  DEST                    
PROTO   DEST                            SOURCE          ORIGINAL        
RATE            USER/   MARK
#                                PORT                       
PORT(S)              DEST            LIMIT           GROUP

ACCEPT                  $FW                     net                   
tcp     +ip-portmap-set
-------------------


and try to compile the above I get an error that the service 
'+ip-portmap-set' is not recognised (the set is of type portmap and is 
already loaded with the ipsets -R - no problem).

So, my question is - what have I done wrong? Is there a way I can define 
portmap ip sets and use them in my rules file and if so how do I go 
about doing that?


Thanks a lot!
