Re: Keeping iptables in sync across multiple machines

I remember kernel v.0.99pl13...  Back then it seemed that everything Linux was version < 1.0.  Stuff was solid then too.  I had one crash in four years.  Comparing with Windows 3.1, 3.2, etc., I was almost thinking that any software version higher than 1.0 couldn't be any good.  (And so we all learn and learn.)

True.  Anyone remember this one?  0.99pl92

That's a linux kernel from the time when Linus just would _not_ bump
it up to v1.0 and move on.  He stayed with 0.99 versions for a
lonnnnnnng time.
