This will save any changes made to the running rules by the iptables command before iptables is actually stopped.I'm curious why the rules aren't saved when you set them. Surely that's the time to commit them to file? Not when starting/stopping/restarting the iptables service.
No, the time to save them is after you test your changes and they work. -- Bill Davidsen <davidsen@xxxxxxx> "We have more to fear from the bungling of the incompetent than from the machinations of the wicked." - from Slashdot -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
