Traceroute gives me a very similar output, so it is connecting to the
server at the 12th hop (for some reason, I can't copy/paste the output
into Mozilla...)
I'm running ManDrake 8.2, and installed Shorewall from a mag's cd. I've
been unable to find a config utility - either system or Shorewall's own
- to config it, and balked at the thought of doing so file by file
