Hey, thanks Tom. I appreciate it. I had just pulled the latest source from git 
after actually taking a look at the code in my local copy. My knowledge of Perl 
is 2 decades out of date so I wasn't sure if what I thought I saw was really 
there.

Thanks again!

Regards,
J Cliff Armstrong

P.S. Correct. My Shorewall version is 5.2.3.3. My Kernel version is 5.2.8 
w/Arch distro patches applied. Sorry if I was unclear. Next time(?) I'll put 
the version info for Shorewall in the body instead of the subject.
