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.
