Re: Firewalling
Hi Craig,
I'm fairly sure that this is "debian-illegal" way to do it, but I created
a "firewall" script in /etc/init.d, and then the correct symlinks to that
script from the RC directories. The files are:
-rwxr-xr-x 387 Nov 7 22:43 init.d/firewall*
lrwxrwxrwx 18 Oct 7 23:36 rc2.d/S21firewall -> ../init.d/firewall*
lrwxrwxrwx 18 Oct 7 23:36 rc6.d/K21firewall -> ../init.d/firewall*
I expect that debian policy describes a script that will do this
automagically, but it's a heck of a lot quicker to just create the files
than it is to find the right tool. :-)
