Hi Tom,

I try /sbin/shorewall dump > /tmp/shorewall_dump.txt and I am getting an
error message LOGFILE (/var/log/messages) does not exist!

I look in the sbin directory and see the shorewall file.

I am using port 10000 for SSH and 10001 to access Webmin

Have a great weekend,

A couple of things:

- A trace is useful in cases where the firewall won't start; it is not
helpful for diagnosing connection issues. For that, we need to see the
output of 'shorewall dump'.

- I fail to understand why you believe that accepting source ports
10000:10001 would allow you to access SSH and Webmin.
