Hey, great news.  Thank you, man.

I wonder why it’s so complicated though. Because iptables doesn’t 
support multiple port types or more than 15 ports? I guess then iptables 
needs a general patch. :)
Because I agree that that is no thing that Shorewall should do. It 
should be able to just pass a list to iptables.

Anyway, thanks. Trying it out today.

By the way: If you still think I’m doing something wrong, I’m happy to 
learn something.
