Hello,
The idea in using 'shorewall refresh' would be to re-apply an existing TC
configuration. In other words, 'shorewall restart' was already executed (and
included a TC config), and sometime later, a 'refresh' would be done, using the
same config files. The problem seems to be that the 'refresh' command does nto
seem to accept a directory for the config files, like the 'restart' command
does. Eg., given s set of config files in /tmp/shorewall/ :
# shorewall restart /tmp/shorewall
Compiling...
[...]
Processing /etc/shorewall/started ...
done.
# shorewall refresh /tmp/shorewall
Compiling...
Loading Modules...
ERROR: The 'zones' file does not exist or has zero size
Maybe it does not take any param in this case and works with
files present in /var/. The documentation surely suggests this
for re-applying tcrules.
# shorewall refresh
Compiling...
Loading Modules...
ERROR: The 'zones' file does not exist or has zero size
Surely enough, if the config files ar ecopied into the standard
location...:
# cp /tmp/shorewall/* /etc/shorewall/
# shorewall refresh
Compiling...
Running iptables-restore...
done.
Would it be possible to have the refresh command also take a
directory as a parameter ?
Thanks.
