Automatically it will load the "active" chainset if you have a sysv symbolic link on /etc/rc<runlevel>.d If not: cd /etc/rc<runlevel>.d ln -s ../init.d/iptables S<startup number>iptables <runlevel> must be the same on /etc/inittab (the default runlevel) or whatever runlevel you want. <startup number> is a number between 00 and 99. I personally choose 12 or 10. Or, if you want, "the debian way": # update-rc.d iptables start <startup number> <runlevel> . (make sure there's a dot on the end of the line ) To write the active chainset: /etc/init.d/iptables save active (make sure the directory /var/lib/iptables exists). To make an inactive chainset: iptables -F iptables -F -t nat iptables -F -t mangle /etc/init.d/iptables save inactive Regards, -- Juan Carlos Inostroza O.
