Shorewall 5.1.0 RC 1 is now available for testing.
Problems Corrected since Beta 2:
1) The defect repair from Shorewall 5.0.15.2 has been merged.
2) Previously, the compiler was ignoring the SWITCH column in the
mangle file for some targets. That has been corrected.
New Features since Beta 2:
1) A 'show ipsec' command has been added. This command displays the
contents of the IPSEC "Security Policy Database" (SPD) and
"Security Association Database" (SAD). SAD keys are not shown.
2) The Netfilter team have removed support for the rawpost table, so
Shorewall no longer supports features requiring that table
(stateless netmapping in the netmap file). The good news is that,
since kernel 3.7, Netfilter supports stateful IPv6 network mapping
which is now also supported in Shorewall6 (see
shorewall6-netmap(5)).
3) In the released tarballs, the action.* files now reside in a
separate Actions/ directory.
Thank you for testing,
