We'd been running Shorewall successfully since a couple of years ago on the then current version of Linux Mint. I recently rebuilt the firewall on slightly less ancient hardware and with the latest Linux Mint and Shorewall, and now it doesn't start automatically.
After a bit of googling I set startup=1 in /etc/default/shorewall and on the next reboot following logon the desktop crashed before displaying anything, dropping me into fallback mode. Now shorewall again doesn't start on boot. I think I got the same desktop crash when I first set STARTUP_ENABLED=Yes in shorewall.conf. The ruleset is unchanged from the previous build. Do you now need an ACCEPT $FW $FW rule to allow the desktop to talk to its graphics server? And how do I now get shorewall to start on boot?
