Proxmox firewall and 3rd party firewalls

[dik23]

Quick question...

I'm running Shorewall on my Proxmox, will the new Proxmox firewall have any effect on this setup ?

I presume that both are front ends for iptables but better safe than sorry.

Thanks

No effect, as long as Proxmox firewall is disabled (default).

I've been using Shorewall with Proxmox for years but now when I get

shorewall restart
Compiling...
Processing /etc/shorewall/params ...
Processing /etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf...

It hangs there. I have to ctrl-c three times to get it to continue. Each time I get this in syslog

kernel: Can't find ip_set type hash:ip

A search for that error produces nothing, it's like it's an error that doesn't exist !

I'm unable to alter my shorewall configuration because of this, and I have to say I'm quite concerned about the result of a reboot.

Any ideas ?

No one have any idea about this ? I've never had any problems with Shorewall until the recent update

I have several Proxmox VE servers with shorewall upgraded to 3.3, no issues here. I plan to move these from shorewall to Proxmox VE firewall step by step.
