[Shorewall-devel] Accounting issue (was: Re: [Shorewall-users] More about Accounting)

[kb <kb...@bl...>]

[ Sorry for cross-posting. This should be on the dev list, but I am not
subscribed to that list -- but curious about comments. ;) ]



First of all: Thanks again to Tom for this great new feature and his
help debugging. :-)


While playing around a little bit with this new feature I encountered a
minor issue:

DONE            # does not work
DONE - - - - -  # works

(In fact, the newline followed directly after the last char of the rule,
no unnecessary whitespace added.)

According to the docs, trailing 'any's can be omitted. [1]  This works
at least for the last 3 of them, as I tested. Omitting all 5 optional
values results in shorewall to start without(!) any error, not notifying
about the created chain -- and indeed the chain does not exist.

[1]  This is not mentioned in the docs, but the examples are omitting
them if not needed.
