Maybe because the maintainer did not like it nor recommend its use ? The file /etc/default/iptables in the iptables package from woody contains the following comment : -- start quote -- # Q: You concocted this init.d setup, but you do not like it? # A: I was pretty much hounded into providing it. I do not like it. # Don't use it. Use /etc/network/interfaces, use /etc/network/*.d/ # scripts use /etc/ppp/ip-*.d/ script. Create your own custom # init.d script -- no need to even name it iptables. Use ferm, # ipmasq, ipmenu, guarddog, firestarter, or one of the many other # firewall configuration tools available. Do not use the init.d # script. --- end quote --- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
