If you don't want to learn systemd at this stage you can put your iptables lines in /etc/rc.local (before exit 0 line). It will be run during boot and add your iptables config. I know it's not elegant solution by any means but it works if you don't want to play with services at this stage. -- Karol Augustin ka...@augustin.pl http://karolaugustin.pl/ +353 85 775 5312
