Hello William,
Mason sounds like a great idea that has already been somewhat
tackled by the IPFWADM Dot File generator. I haven't personally
used it but I know of people that have. Give it a look and
let us know what your thoughts are. Its a graphical solution and
it sounds like yours is command based (my preference). But,
duplicating efforts like this is a waste of your precious Linux
cycles. Maybe you and the IPFWADM dotfile author can collaborate
together and create a awesome solution for v2.0.x IPFWADM users
and 2.1.x IPCHAINS users!
Just a thought!
