Hi,
Sorry for the dump...
Shorewall runs at startup on my box, always has...
I just mentioned give me a distro that you feel comfortable with, if you
felt like it was a problem with a distro/netfilter being used...
So far I've used this on 2 distros, Arch and Slackware and two versions of
Slack, 13.1 and 13.37 everything working the same...
I didn't think netflter would vary much from distro to distro...
THANKS
