I'm assuming that shorewall is writing your netfilter/iptables ruleset and loading all relevant modules. In that case the proper thing to do is place that in rc.firewall. That will ensure the kernel firewall is activated properly before any network services start. Putting it in rc.local probably won't harm anything, but it does leave you without a firewall for some indefinite period while the system is booting. -- It is better to hear the rebuke of the wise, Than for a man to hear the song of fools.
