It looks that in case of error, file is overwritten: root@epsilon:~# date >> /tmp/blabla root@epsilon:~# cat /tmp/blabla Fri Mar 25 21:08:27 MSK 2011 root@epsilon:~# iptables-save > /tmp/blanax iptables-save v1.4.2: Unable to open /proc/net/ip_tables_names: No such file or directory
root@epsilon:~# cat /tmp/blanax root@epsilon:~# So my patch can hide problem while overwritting existing rules if ip_tables is somehow unloaded on package upgrade, for example. -- Best regards, [COOLCOLD-RIPN] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
