Shorewall 2.0.6 Release   PDF  Print  E-mail 
Contributed by Chad Brandt  
Friday, 16 July 2004
This releases fixes some bugs discovered in the 2.0.5 release, in addition this release fixes some file permissions on the configuration files

 Problems Corrected:

  • Some users have reported the packet type match option in iptables/Netfilter failing to match certain broadcast packets. The result is that the firewall log shows a lot of broadcast packets.

    Other users have complained of the following message when starting Shorewall:

                modprobe: cant locate module ipt_pkttype

    Users experiencing either of these problems can use PKTTYPE=No in shorewall.conf to cause Shorewall to use IP address filtering of broadcasts rather than packet type.
  • The shorewall.conf and zones file are no longer given execute permission by the installer script.
  • ICMP packets that are in the INVALID state are now dropped by the Reject and Drop default actions. They do so using the new 'dropInvalid' builtin action.
