iptables is for Linux only: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iptables It is a program used to configure the Linux firewall; the Linux firewall is not available on OSX. For similar functionality on OSX Snow Leopard and earlier, look into ipfw instead: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ipfw On OSX Lion and later, ipfw is deprecated and replaced by PF: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PF_(firewall) _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users
