Package: firehol
Version: 1.214-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
Hi,
please allow additional arguments given to /etc/init.d/firehol
to be passed through to /sbin/firehol.
I do not know whether either Debian policy or the general calling
conventions for rc-scripts forbid it, but since some other Debian
packages (eg. fetchmail, shaper) do it too, I guess it is allowed.
The attached patch should do it.
Maybe this is also a possible solution for bug #281408.
Thanks
Peter
