| Hi All,
I have loaded RedHat 9 and after learning something about ‘iptables’,
got SAMBA to work with Windows 2000 & Xp!
The problem is when I reboot my Linux server, the system “FORGETS” the
script that I loaded into iptables and finds something else, which does
NOT work with any version of Windows. When I re-run my script, and
issue /etc/init.d/iptables save command, SAMBA is happy again.
What am I doing wrong???
Frank
P.S.
Sorry Guys, my Charter a/c no longer works!!

Load your custom rules into the kernel space and then run
service iptables save

Thanks Alexander for the info. However, that does not change anything.
The system still saves in the same place '/etc/sysconfig/iptables'. I
take it that 'iptables -A....etc' will load my custom rules into the
'kernel space'.
Where could this misterious script come from. Is there any way of
checking to find all the scripts that a Linux system will run on start-up?
Frank.

/etc/rc.d/init.d is the directory with all the startup scripts. /etc/sysconfig
is the directory with most of the configuration information on Redhat systems.
by looking at the script's change time with ls -ltc /etc/sysconfig you can
verify the file was written (after you service iptables save that is).
hope that helps.
peace,
cj
