Dear sirs,
I am in the process of migrating my old redhat 7.1 based firewall to
Debian.
On the old firewall, I replaced the /etc/init.d/iptables script with a
huge home written script.
This script loaded all filter chains, one by one, and did some changes
to /proc/sys/net/ipv4/
ip_conntrack_max
ip_local_port_range
tcp_en
...
Now,
I want to have one start script that sets up the kernel parameters, and
I want to have my separate config script, with all chains, then I want
to run init like:
<Setup kernel parameters>
iptables start
to configure my firewall, I would do something like
# run_my_firewall_chain_script
# /etc/init.d/iptables save
Well thats the background information, sorry to keep it so long.
Which configuration file is supposed to keep the kernel parameters?
Sorry for such a long simple question.
Is there a FAQ for this list?
regards,
Magnus Sundberg
