Bug#417663: firestarter: Firestarter does not start on boot if Network Manager is used

[Lionel Le Folgoc]

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
