The default Redhat startup script has a grep command that launches IPTABLES_CONFIG. I hard coded the launch of my script instead /etc/iptables.rules and the script runs fine. I have to start another posting now, my script locks me out of my web site. Thanks, Larry Nobs At 07:04 PM 10/19

I found a script for setting iptables on the internet that I like so far. The author declares some variables and then uses them later on in the script ie IFACE="eth0" When I try to run the script with ./iptables.rules I get a message that IFACE is not a command. I tried $IFACE wit
