Shorewall Download

I strongly urge you to read and print a copy of the Shorewall QuickStart Guide.

Once you've done that, download one of the modules:

bulletIf you run a RedHat, SuSE, Mandrake, Linux PPC or TurboLinux distribution with a 2.4 kernel, you can use the RPM version (note: the RPM should also work with other distributions that store init scripts in /etc/rc.d/init.d and that include chkconfig or insserv). If you find that it works in other cases, let me know so that I can mention them here.
bulletIf you are running LRP, download the .lrp file (you might also want to download the .tgz so you will have a copy of the documentation).
bulletIf you run Debian and would like a .deb package, visit Lorenzo Martignoni's site.
bulletOtherwise, download the shorewall module (.tgz)

Also check the errata to see if there are updates that apply to the version that you have downloaded.

WARNING - YOU CAN NOT SIMPLY INSTALL THE RPM AND ISSUE A "shorewall start" COMMAND. SOME CONFIGURATION IS REQUIRED BEFORE THE FIREWALL WILL START. IF YOU ISSUE A "start" COMMAND AND THE FIREWALL FAILS TO START, YOUR SYSTEM WILL NO LONGER ACCEPT ANY NETWORK TRAFFIC. IF THIS HAPPENS, ISSUE A "shorewall clear" COMMAND TO RESTORE NETWORK CONNECTIVITY.

Download Latest Version (1.2.12): Remember that updates to the mirrors occur 6-12 hours after an update to the primary site.
