The problem I have is that iptables-save (without -c) gives me the chain counters: :INPUT ACCEPT [0:0] :FORWARD ACCEPT [0:0] :OUTPUT ACCEPT [7568359:2744381371] :RH-Firewall-1-INPUT - [0:0] and OUTPUT ACCEPT is always changing. Also it gives the timestamps in commented out lines, which also is noise for func-inventory. So every host is daily adding something like the following: -# Generated by iptables-save v1.3.5 on Fri Jun 3 14:57:06 2011 +# Generated by iptables-save v1.3.5 on Fri Jun 3 15:08:54 2011 *filter :INPUT ACCEPT [0:0] :FORWARD ACCEPT [0:0] -:OUTPUT ACCEPT [26377:4434694] +:OUTPUT ACCEPT [29222:4961577] -A INPUT -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -p icmp -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT @@ -22,4 +22,4 @@ -A FORWARD -m limit --limit 3/min -j LOG --log-prefix "FIREWALL: " --log-level 6 -A FORWARD -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-host-prohibited COMMIT -# Completed on Fri Jun 3 14:57:06 2011 +# Completed on Fri Jun 3 15:08:54 2011 > b/c it seems to be behaving on mine. You're not seeing these timestamps or counters ? -jf _______________________________________________ Func-list mailing list Func-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/func-list
