When I attempt to start shorewall (version 4.0.15) I get an RTNETLINK error
(see below).

/var/log/shorewall-init.log
[...]
21:02:18 Creating Interface Chains...
21:02:19 Adding Providers...
RTNETLINK answers: File exists
   ERROR: Command "ip route add table 1 129.116.XXX.0/24 dev eth2 proto kernel
s
cope link src 129.116.XXX.30" Failed
21:02:25 Shorewall-generated routing tables and routing rules removed
Terminated

Googling to try to understand this error hasn't been helpful.  I am guessing
that the route already exists in another routing table, since when I run "ip
route" it shows up there.

ip route:
192.168.128.0/24 dev eth3  proto kernel  scope link  src 192.168.128.101
129.116.XXX.0/24 dev eth2  proto kernel  scope link  src 129.116.XXX.30
192.168.1.0/24 dev eth1  proto kernel  scope link  src 192.168.1.1
192.168.0.0/24 dev eth0  proto kernel  scope link  src 192.168.0.1
default via 129.116.XXX.254 dev eth2

Do I need to manually delete the routes that were added by running
/etc/init.d/networking restart before starting shorewall?  I tried just deleting
the default route, but that didn't change things.

/etc/shorewall/providers:
#NAME   NUMBER  MARK DUPLICATE  INTERFACE GATEWAY       OPTIONS         COPY
lan     1       201     main    eth2    129.116.XXX.254 track,loose     eth0
cell    2       202     main    ppp0    -       track,loose     eth0
bgan    3       203     main    eth3    192.168.128.100 track,loose     eth0

I'm running Debian Lenny, kernel version 2.6.21, with iproute2-ss080725.  Any
help in understanding why I am getting this error would be appreciated.

Thank you,
Don
