32 Hi,
33 Works OK on a 2.6 system, too. It depends only on: iptables, iproute2
34 and virtual/libc (glibc).
35 Some suggestions:
36 1.try "revdep-rebuild -pv" later w/o "p" to check if something needs to
37 be rebuild (suspect 'iptables' here);
38 2.Check for "required options" (see shorewall docs) in the kernel config
39 (maybe something was changed);
40 3.Check the five 'basic' ;) config files:
41 /etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf&policy&interfaces&zones&rules.
42 HTH. Rumen
