Firewall rules

[kilburn]

Quote:As far as I can tell by looking at the /etc/init.d/ispcp_network all rules in /etc/default/iptables-rules get overwritten by the ones in the ispcp_network when restarting the server.

Look harder Ispcp only adds two new chains that just count traffic, without touching any other rules/chaines already there. Even if you "/etc/init.d/ispcp_network restart", it only removes the old rules and regenerates them without touching anything else.

Therefore, you can use your own firewall/rules... just make sure to call "/etc/init.d/ispcp_network restart" after modifying any rules in your firewall and you'll be fine.

PS: I don't know about others, but I tend to ignore posts which are **bumped**
