I read through the iptables wiki page this afternoon to refresh my memory on how you save rules so they get load on startup.
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Iptables There are some inconsitencies which I'm curious about. ### "rc-service iptables" vs. "/etc/init.d/iptables" Most of the page's examples use "rc-server iptables <cmd>" but in a few spots it is "/etc/init.d/iptables <cmd>". ### boot vs. default runlevel At the top of the page, rules are loaded by adding 'iptables' to the runlevel 'default', while at the bottom of the page, the 'boot' runlevel is used instead. Is there some significance to these differences? -- Grant
