What exactly does the > 'shorewall' entry in the 'ps' output look like? I was wrong... what I was seeing was the result of my grep. I am going to go read the info you suggested and will also research into why I am unable to connect at all. I will be out of pocket for the rest of today. Thanks to you both for you assistance. I will not give up and will be sure to take notes of what I do going forward. I am also going to review the config file settings in detail (by doing a diff between the running set and the new ones.), let me know if a copy of that would be significant.
