Basic Ipchains Firewall Rule Script 0.1.0 Beta

Basic Ipchains Firewall Rule Script is an iptables firewall script.

WARNING THIS SCRIPT HAS NOT BEEN TESTED YET! USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.

TIPS:

- To test your ruleset without actually changing the firewall, you can change the IPTABLES variable below to "echo" and run the script. This will print a copy of the ruleset commands out to stdout (screen)

- To tidy it up even more, you could try this when you run the script with the "echo" setting:

/etc/rc.d/rc.firewall | grep '^-' | sed 's/^-/ipchains -/'

- Or to create a prebuilt ruleset with your variables already set:

/etc/rc.d/rc.firewall | grep '^-' | sed 's/^-/ipchains -/' > newfile

Of course you will have to rerun this and create a new script whenever you change the variables in this script.
