192.168.3.142 is reached using the default gateway. So unless you use your
distribution's IP configuration tools to create a specific route to that host
via the default gateway, then NULL_ROUTE_RFC1918=Yes will drop packets to/from
that host.
Erik, you can't have it both ways. You know that 192.168.3.142 is an RFC 1918
host that is of interest to you, but nothing in the configuration reflects that
knowledge (or you can add an entry to /etc/shorewall/routes). On the other
hand, there is a route to 10.0.0.0/24, so that network is exempted from being
excluded by NULL_ROUTE_RFC1918=Yes.
