you should start by looking at /etc/init.d/iptables this uses iptables-save and iptables-restore and saves rules in /etc/sysconfig/iptables
if you're lucky the sysconfig file is already populated and you can just manipulate it directly, otherwise perhaps the easiest way would be to start the firewall, then do `/etc/init.d/iptables save`, you should then be able to edit the sysconfig file as you like and restart the firewall from this file... provided you're not locked out in the mean time ;) On 1/26/07, Kevin Waterson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

But I would prefer to simply edit the native files. Is this possible? Kind regards Kevin -- "Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch.
