shorewall problem


I am currently running gentoo and I have gotten shorewall pretty much set up. When I go to start the firewall however, it hangs at "Loading Modules". even ctrl+c wont break me out of it. Any ideas?

Do the commands "shorewall status" and "shorewall check" return any useful information?

Shorewall may be looking for a module not contained in your current kernel or iptables.
