hi, 

I also applied the patch on shorewall 4.5.21.6 using "patch 
/usr/share/shorewall/Shorewall/Misc.pm ADMINISABSENTMINDED.patch". 

If I use hosts listed  in the routestopped file(deprecated) the 
traffic is allowed as expected but if I use the stoppedrules file the 
connections are refused   no matter what rules I put in the 
stoppedrules!

In other words with the patch installed I can no longer use the 
stoppedrules file to  determine which hosts should still have access 
through the firewall when it is stopped.
