Simon Hobson pointed out a typo in my earlier post. Corrected copy:
2) The behavior of ADMINISABSENTMINDED=No is corrected. Previously,
'shorewall stop' would not block existing connections regardless of
the setting of this option. Beginning with this release, the
behavior of ADMINISABSENTMINDED=No depends on whether the
routestopped or the stoppedrules file defines the allow connections
while the firewall is stopped.
If there are entries in /etc/shorewall[6]/routestopped or if there
are no entries in /etc/shorewall[6]/stoppedrules, then the behavior
of ADMINISABSENTMINDED=No is as documented (existing connections
are blocked unles they are allowed by
/etc/shorewall[6]/routestopped). If there are no entries in
/etc/shorewall[6]/routestopped but there are entries in
/etc/shorewall[6]/stoppedrules, then the behavior is as if
ADMINISABSENTMINDED=Yes and a warning message is generated.
