yep, that was it. just using 'shorewall restart' works fine. the SELINUX upgrade changed some ACLs. i'll just ignore the init script from now on.

I have been running version 4.4.16.1 for several months now and it has

rules file to add a new IP address through the firewall. When initiating
/etc/init.d/shorewall this suddenly happened:

[root@fw10g Shorewall]# /etc/init.d/shorewall restart
Restarting shorewall: Can't exec "/usr/share/shorewall//getparams":

To the best of my knowledge nothing has changed on this system since the
last time I modified the rules.  Any thoughts or ideas?

Looks like an SELINUX issue. I'm betting that SELINUX has been upgraded.

See if simply 'shorewall restart' works.
