Hi, I made a more complete script based on the one proposed to let NetworkManager start/stop the firewall when the interface goes up/down (rename it to 50firestarter, made it executable and copy it to /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d). Some people tested it on Ubuntu and gave good feedback, it seems to work.
Hope this help. Cheers, Lionel
