[CentOS] iptables package issue
I just did a test install off a netinstall iso to a mirror repo which left no /etc/sysconfig/iptables file in place. So a quick check: # yum whatprovides /etc/sysconfig/iptables --disablerepo=\* --enablerepo=base --enablerepo=updates --disableplugin=\* No Matches found Without that file iptables doesn't start as per the init script. Anyone know what may be awry? Thanks, jlc ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Basically, if you want to run iptables, you need to define some rules first. Either create the file by hand and then start iptables, or create the rules in iptables and use service iptables save to create the file. -- Bowie ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Right, My bad, there was a change in the kickstart file, so it wasn't made. Should have thought that one through. Thanks! jlc Ps.
