Is it possible that the eth3 NIC is not recognized by the kernel or 
instantiated with
a different name.  Seems the udev trend is toward consistent names so that eth0 
is now
bus slot/port (i.e. p17p1).

Do you find eth3 in the output of 'ip link' or 'ifconfig -a'?  Seems like 
Shorewall is
saying "it just ain't there".
