Hi,

on a host with IPv4 and IPv6 connectivity, you will probably have net-firewall/shorewall and net-firewall/shorewall6 installed.

Currently, both init scripts (/etc/init.d/shorewall and /etc/init.d/shorewall6) are displaying 

  Starting firewall ....

So when your system starts and shorewall6 for example will fail, you don't know if shorewall or shorewall6 failed:

 * Starting firewall ...           [ OK ]
 * Starting firewall ...           [ !! ]


Easy fix:

Just change

  ebegin "Starting firewall"

to

  ebegin "Starting firewall6"

or even better, use shorewall and shorewall6 instead of firewall.

Don't forget the stop messages.

Reproducible: Always
