Gents,
I know the answer to this question is already well documented, but I
need to ask anyway because iptables never behaves the way I expect it to
in this regard; How, exactly, does rule ordering work for rules added
through the iptables userspace tool?
For example, say I have a bunch of rules that will be coming and going
on a very frequent basis, but I have one that I need to keep last in the
evaluation sequence. A that I would just add the rule that needs to stay
last with "-A" and all the others with "-I"?
I like to give you guys an easy one once in a while ;)
-Paul
