Shorewall module for stable version 5.2.8 on CentOS7 with latest needs big update.

Easiest way to solve constant changes would be allow user to define path to configuration files in Configuration for module Shorewall Firewall, in.e. path to config file and name of table.

Since that is not possible at the moment, here are list of tables and files that are at the moment obsolete for latest version:

/etc/shorewall/tos
This file defines rules for setting Type Of Service (TOS). Its use is deprecated, beginning in Shorewall 4.5.1, in favor of the TOS target in shorewall-mangle /etc/shorewall[6]/mangle

/etc/shorewall/masq
Support for the deprecated 'masq' file has been deleted. Any existing 'masq' file will automatically be converted to the equivalent 'snat' file /etc/shorewall[6]/snat

/etc/shorewall/routestopped
This file is deprecated in favor of the shorewall-stoppedrules(5) file /etc/shorewall[6]/stoppedrules

/etc/shorewall/blacklist
The use of this file is deprecated and beginning with Shorewall 4.5.7, the file is no longer installed. Beginning with Shorewall 4.4.25, the preferred method of blacklisting and whitelisting is to use the blrules file (shorewall-blrules (5)) /etc/shorewall[6]/blrules

/etc/shorewall/route_rules Traffic to be routed to one of the providers listed in shorewall-providers is now in file /etc/shorewall[6]/rtrules

Any info about Shorewall module update in Webmin roadmap?
