Hello

I have two machines connect over OpenVPN.

I'm adding Shorewall protection to them both.  I installed

shorewall6-lite version
4.6.6.1

yesterday on both machines.

I have the firewalls working ok for normal internet traffic with servers, LANs, 
etc.

But I'm stuck on a puzzle with the OpenVPN connection.

The overall setup looks like this

        SVR1
                eth0  XX.XX.XX.XX
                      192.168.1.1
                tun0  10.1.1.1

        SVR2
                eth0  YY.YY.YY.YY
                tun0  10.1.1.2
                eth1  192.168.2.1

With Shorewall in place, The VPN is up and I can ping VPN endpoint-to-endpoint 
in both directions.  I.e. both of these work

        SVR1
                ping 10.1.1.2

        SVR2
                ping 10.1.1.1

But when I ping lan-to-lan

        SVR1
                ping 192.168.2.7

I get blocked on SVR2 with

        Jan 27 09:04:39 ganymede kernel: [663916.258385] 
shorewall:vpn2lan:REJECT IN=tun0 OUT=eth1  SRC=10.1.1.1 DST=192.168.2.7 LEN=84 
TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=63 ID=15925 DF PROTO=ICMP TYPE=8 CODE=0 ID=29216 SEQ=1

It's failing on communication between 'vpn' and 'lan' zones according to the 
log on SVR2 with

        vpn2lan:REJECT

Even though I have these in Shorewall rules

        Ping(ACCEPT)   vpn   lan
        Ping(ACCEPT)   lan   vpn

This should be pretty simple and I probably did something obviously wrong but I 
don't see it yet.

Any ideas please?
