Good evening, Only the best people have that name :-)
AUTOMAKE=Yes in shorewall.conf, and shorewall reload (with or without -C) works fine - only restart or start clears the counters. Almost as if 'start' doesn't add the '--counters' flag to iptables-restore? (I've tried following the start script but got rather lost...)
