Folks,

I have a situation that needs clarification. I am able to get the wired side of 
my network running just fine, however, the wireless access point that I have 
set 
up is malfunctioning.

According to the docs for Adding a Wireless Segment to your Two-Interface 
Firewall (http://www.shorewall.net/two-interface.htm)

The only changes that needed to be made were to add a line to the interfaces 
file and one to the masq file.

The entries I have are:

the interfaces entries -
net     eth0    detect        dhcp,tcpflags,routefilter,nosmurfs,logmartians
loc     eth3    detect        tcpflags,nosmurfs
loc     eth4    detect        dhcp

the masq entries -
eth0                    eth3
eth0                    eth4

The eth4  lines were the ones I added when I set up the wireless access point 
last year. I was running Shorewall 4.0.6 then. Now I am running Shorewall 
4.4.6, 
are they still valid or should they be the ones below?

According to the //http:www.shorewall.net/LennyToSqueeze.html the masq entries 
should now read:
eth0                    192.168.139.0/28
eth0                    192.168.139.32/28

and the interfaces entries should be:
net     eth0    detect       dhcp,tcpflags,nosmurfs,routefilter,logmartians
loc     eth3    detect       tcpflags,nosmurfs,routefilter,logmartians
loc     eth4    detect       dhcp


The behavior that I am getting is when the firewall system is first booted I am 
able to get to everything but after some period of time the wireless (eth4) 
part 
quits, even with NO ACTIVITY. I thing that is a leases problem, since I can 
reset the wireless access point and all is well again... for a while.
