apt-get remove --purge shorewall

http://www.shorewall.net/

tar xjvf /path-of-shorewall/shorewall-3.2.4.tar.bz2
cd shorewall-3.2.4
./install.sh
cp init.debian.sh /etc/init.d/shorewall
cp default.debian /etc/default/shorewall

enable shorewall in /etc/default/shorewall with `startup=1`

shorewall check
shorewall restart
