How can I make the values permanent? Put the commands that you manually invoked to change the ipchains setup in one of your startup scripts. I'm afraid my knowledge of the Debian startup scripts is close to nothing, and I can't help more, but you should be able to find a script equivalent to BSD's /etc/rc.local without much trouble. Perhaps posting to a Debian forum will get you more accurate help :-) Giorgos Keramidas FreeBSD Documentation Project keramida@{freebsd.org,ceid.upatras.gr} http://www.FreeBSD.org/docproj/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
