This version of fwbuilder includes a template init.d script to start
your firewall script that is generated and the default file. In order to use
these you will need to install them on your firewall machine. These do not
need to be installed on your build machine unless it also doubles as your
firewall. The are included as part of the fwbuilder-common package and are
located in /usr/share/doc/fwbuilder-common/examples/.
The default file (examples/fwbuilder.default) should be installed as
/etc/default/fwbuilder and the init.d script (examples/fwbuilder.init.d) as
/etc/init.d/fwbuilder. Then copy your .fw script to /etc/fwbuilder as
`hostname -s`.fw.
You can use 'update-rc.d start 41 S . stop 89 0 6' to install the
init.d script to start on boot-up or modify to suit your systems boot-up
sequence.
This is a maintainer built script, and therefore not supported by the
upstream authors of fwbuilder. Please report any problems to the package
maintainer via the Debian BTS.
The fwbuilder.init.d script patched by submission provided to me by
Robert Lindgren <robert@orcafat.com> to provide means of flushing rules as
well as listing active rules.
* Update May 1, 2004
It has been suggested in BTS #228803 that I mention that upstream had
some problems with XSLT upgrades somewhere between versions in Woody to Sarge.
Upstream does have a contrib script on the web their website but has not
included it in any official tarball. Upstream also does not provide support
for any contributions scripts. This is not a problem if you've created a new
XML data file with a 1.1.x version of fwbuilder.
