[Shorewall-users] Shorewall 5.0.13 Beta 2

[Tom Eastep]

Shorewall 5.0.13 Beta 2 is now available for testing.

New Features since Beta 1:

1) A 'timeout' option has been added to the DYNAMIC_BLACKLIST setting.
The option is only accepted for ipset-based dynamic blacklisting
and causes entries in the blacklist ipset to be automatically
deleted if they are not matched within a specified time. See
shorewall[6].conf(5) for details.

2) A new FIREWALL option has been added to shorewall[6].conf. This
option is intended to be used on an admisitrative system in
configurations of remote firewalls. It defines the DNS name or IP
address of the remote system so that the system name does not have
to be given in the remote-start, remote-reload and remote-restart
commmands. See shorewall[6](8) for details.

3) Shorewall6 now allows more that one provider to specify the
'balance' or 'fallback' options.

Thank you for testing,
