iptables-save, iptables-restore
by upnort from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4QYB1)
Any Slackers using these tools?
While included in the iptables package (sym-links), a stock Slackware is not configured to directly use the commands. Other distros store saved contents in /etc/network/iptables or /etc/sysconfig/iptables, but there does not seem to be a common expected storage location in Slackware.
Not a mission critical question. Just curious if others are using the commands in Slackware and where they default to storing the configuration.
Thanks. :)
