Since Shorewall development is much faster than the Debian release process and the author of Shorewall does not support old versions, you need to decide where you want to go for support. If you want to get help from the Shorewall mailing lists, you are probably better of using the latest version from the Shorewall site. If you are happy with getting support from Debian sources, you can stay with the Debian packages. Personally, I use Debian because of its stability. I don't like upgrading production software unless I have to. For me, the Debian support structure works fine and I use the Shorewall version in Sarge. Asking for help with a Debian packaged version of Shorewall on the Shorewall list will usually result in a tongue lashing from Tom Eastep ;) -- Bill Thompson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
