Seattle Firewall

Fall-back and Uninstall


Beginning with version 3.1, Seattle Firewall includes a fallback script and an uninstall script.


Falling Back to the Previous Version of Seattle Firewall using the Fallback Script.

If you install version 3.1 or later and discover that it doesn't work for you, you can fall back to your previously installed version. To do that:

Warning: The fallback script will replace /etc/seawall.conf, /etc/seawall/apps, /etc/seawall/servers and /etc/seawall/tunnels with the version of these files from before the current version was installed. Any changes to any of these files will be lost.


Falling Back to the Previous Version of Seattle Firewall using rpm

If your previous version of Seattle Firewall was installed using RPM, you may fall back to that version by typing "rpm -Uvh --force <old rpm>" (Example: "rpm -Uvh --force /downloads/seawall-3.1.rpm" would fall back to the 3.1 version of Seattle Firewall).


Uninstalling Seattle Firewall

If you no longer wish to use Seattle Firerwall, you may remove it by:

If you installed using an rpm, at a root shell prompt type "rpm -e seawall".
