I meant use it instead of using Iptables directly: the package takes care of restoring filter rules on boot and is more user-friendly than Iptables. Shorewall-save will save the existing rules. But why aren't you already using Iptables-save and Iptables-restore? -- John Hasler jhas...@newsguy.com Elmwood, WI USA
