Subject: iptables-restore format vs ipchains-restore ?


  I had a long struggle getting iptables-restore reading from
/etc/sysconfig/iptables until I tried manually setting up with a script
and then running iptables-save and looked at the output.  It seems that
iptables-restore requires the "-m <match_target>" parameter in many
cases.  I (and other people) followed the ipchains-restore method.  The
/etc/sysconfig/ipchains script basically looks like a shell script that
calls iptables, with the leading "iptables" command stripped out.  This
does not work in iptables-restore.

  The man page should at least mention the above.  Whom should I forward
the request to, for additions to the man page ?  I don't know latex, but
I'm willing to submit plain-text suggestions for amendmants.  I really
hated being told to RTFM, when TFM didn't have the info I needed.
Hopefully, this will save others the frustrations and waste of time I
ran into.
