Re: [cobalt-security] Ipchains and dns - my firewall.

["Lance Rushing" <lance_rushing@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I should make the firewall scripts either:

a) Check is ipchains can run or not and give a nice responce.

or

b) (better)  Change the script to work with both ipchains and iptables.

I should have a lot more time to work on the project now that my last
contract just ended.
