I just installed the latest kernel 2.6.32-573.8.1.el6.x86_64 and when I rebooted it shorewall (shorewall-4.5.4-1.el6.noarch) failed with the following error ERROR: a non-empty masq file requires NAT in your kernel and iptables /etc/shorewall/masq (line 15) Question is is this a problem in the kernel or is it a problem in Shorewall? Booting the previous kernel allowed shorewall to start normally. Any one else seen this error, if so what's the fix? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
