Greetings:
i have a pretty stock CentOS 5 machine with ports 80 and 22 exposed, so
my /etc/sysconfig/iptables file is pretty standard/straightforward.
my question is: how is this config file initially generated? i'd
like to
re-create it, and add a couple of rules .... so i don't want to lose
what's
in there already.
i see that my /etc/sysconfig/system-config-securitylevel has three
entries,
which explains how the port 80 and 22 rules get into the config:
--enabled
--port=22:tcp
--port=80:tcp
... and i see the basic /etc/sysconfig/iptables-config file, but i'm
unclear
as to how the rest of the stuff gets in there: e.g.:
# Firewall configuration written by system-config-securitylevel
# Manual customization of this file is not recommended.
*filter
