Eric,

OK, that's exactly how I do it on all counts. I was just wondering if there was an easier way. :)

What's the diff between service iptables restart and iptables-restore < /etc/sysconfig/iptables?

CJ


The former does a save if configured to save before stop, then stop then start (see /etc/init.d/iptables script).

The later does a reload w/out stopping (see man iptables-restore).

It'd be nice if the init script for iptables had a reload function, but I don't see one.
