Subject: locking iptables configuration
Date: Tue, 13 Dec 2011 20:32:49 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4EE7B671.4020101@googlemail.com> (raw)
Would it be possible to add an option to iptables preventing it from
making any (rule) changes to the chains, in effect locking its
configuration?
There is something similar done with auditctl - "auditctl -e 2" locks
and prevents any further changes to its configuration and logs any such
attempts to the audit log file. It would be nice if I could load my
iptables(-saved) configuration/rules and then use that option to lock it
so that it cannot be changed until the next time the machine reboots. Is
this (easily) doable?
