Here are the instructions from the URL I posted:

If Shorewall is starting successfully and your problem is that some set
of connections to/from or through your firewall isn't working (examples:
local systems can't access the Internet, you can't send email through
the firewall, you can't surf the web from the firewall, connections that
you are certain should be rejected are mysteriously accepted, etc.) or
you are having problems with traffic shaping then please perform the
following six steps:

    Be sure that the LOGFILE setting in /etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf is
correct (that it names the file where 'Shorewall' messages are being
logged). See shorewall.conf (5) and the Shorewall Logging Article.

    If your problem has anything to do with IPSEC, be sure that the
ipsec-tools package is installed.

    If Shorewall isn't started then /sbin/shorewall start. Otherwise
/sbin/shorewall reset.

    Try making the connection that is failing.

    /sbin/shorewall dump > /tmp/shorewall_dump.txt

    Post the /tmp/shorewall_dump.txt file as an attachment compressed
with gzip or bzip2.

    Describe where you are trying to make the connection from (IP
address) and what host (IP address) you are trying to connect to.
