I seem to have missed a few posts in my thread. Let me note that
a) I'm at work. I have to do what is required.
b) we are moving from iptables to firewalld. No other options.
Since the firewall system is moving from iptables to firewalld, WHY IS
THERE NOT A PROGRAM INCLUDED with the firewalld package to convert
EXISTING rules?
Each firewall will have its own set of rules. We have three? four?
internal firewalls, *each* with its own rules. Since that's us, I assume
there are tens, if not hundreds of thousands just like us, many with more
firewalls.
Why would *ANYONE* think that everyone should just start from scratch,
taking all the time in the world to get it converted?
mark, still looking for a script
