IPTables Init Script

Ubuntu/Debian Init Script

Reference: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=57111

By default Ubuntu & Debian don't come with an IPTables init script (Bitch Moan ....)

There are many ways to load your IPTables rulesets.
This is one approach.

Overview

Add rules to your iptables via the command line.
Save the rulesets to a file for later use (To survive a reboot).
Launch an init script which loads the previously saved rulesets at given run-levels.

Adding Rules

Saving the Rulesets
