To help you a little I have two scripts I use at boot: /etc/init.d/ipchains and /etc/init.d/sysctl Don't ask me why they are not in base, they should be! Or at least script that are similar ;-) They are both security sensitive! To enable them at boot I have done: root# cd /etc/rcS.d root# ln -s

I would like to setup IPChains on my machine. I can't seem to find any file under /etc/init.d/ for ipchains (networking only handles spoof protection). Where do you folks start your ipchains or ipfwadm rules? Thanks, Bryan

BEWARE: Follow the instructions in IPCHAINS HOWTO... BUT the HOWTO contains SEVERE flaws!!! Create a script to setup ipchains and run it early in the bootup procedure. I have a script called 'ipchains' in /etc/init.d and made a symbolic link called 'S39ipchains' to '/etc/init.d/ipchains' in the
