<pre><span class="quote">> These service lists are inconsistent under /etc/services from vendor to vendor, hence moving one ruleset policy using service names from one linux vendor to another may break.</span >
Local lookups are a general problem when you want to migrate from one machine
to another (just to name UIDs and usernames, network device names, network
addresses, ...).
I think this is a non-issue as one can easily use the "-n -n" parameter (mabye
this needs to be more fine grained). Also, when people published old iptables
rulesets with contained local names this "issue" was also prevent.</pre>
