Folks, This is my first post to the group, I like Shorewall very much! Until now I have had no problems.
I recently built up a system to replace my old FW. The old one was OLD and running Ubuntu 8.04 LTS and Shorewall 4.0.6. Everything works fine. It still is going, however, I am unable to update it any more (no space). That is the reason for the exercise. The new system is running Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS and Shorewall 4.4.6 I copied all the files from /etc/shorewall from the old to the new. Things are working fine EXCEPT I am not able to obtain and IP address via DHCP from my provider for the outside world. I have verified the configuration files contain exactly what I would expect to see there and have edited /etc/default/shorewall and set startup=1. Shorewall is running, yet no connection. There is nothing obvious in the logs that would indicate what the trouble might be. What could be the problem? What information should I provide to help isolate the trouble?
