Preparation for release 0.4.0
by Thomas Woerner 07 Jan '16

07 Jan '16

Hello, the firewalld version 0.4.0 will be released soon now. These are the highlights of the 0.4.0 release: - Speedups by using the {ip|ip6|eb}tables restore commands. - Source MAC support for source bindings and in rich rules. - ipset support for source bindings and in rich rules. - Several bug fixes and other enhancements. - Some doc changes. - firewall-applet has been extended to support the complete functionality of the old gtk applet with an additional config file /etc/firewall/applet.conf to store global defaults. Please give it a try and report bugs you are running into. You can clone the GIT tree from github: https://github.com/t-woerner/firewalld.git or you can download a zip file at https://github.com/t-woerner/firewalld. To create a test rpm for Fedora from the (GIT) tree use the command "./autogen.sh && make test-rpm" in the top firewalld directory. On Fedora you will need also the latest selinux-policy update to allow the use of the restore commands with input created by firewalld: F-24: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=705822 F-23: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=705823 F-22: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=705824 You will most likely need to update these packages: selinux-policy, selinux-policy-devel, selinux-policy-sandbox and selinux-policy-targeted If the use of the {ip,ip6,eb}tables-restore commands is not working for you, then you can set IndividualCalls=yes in the firewalld.conf file in /etc/firewalld. This is also good for debugging. The use of the -restore commands has a down-side: The locks for xtables and ebtables are not used by the -restore commands.
