After you add the rules and issue the 'iptables-save' command, you want those rules to remain there after a reboot. This is a bit trickier to do than on a RH based system. Here is one way:
1. Save your iptables to a file using the following command:
Code:
iptables-save > /etc/iptables.conf
2. Then edit the /etc/network/interfaces file by adding the following line right after 'iface eth0 inet static':
Code:
pre-up iptables-restore < /etc/iptables.conf
That should do it!
This is also how you change the firewall rule on Debian, essentially restarting the firewall.
A good how-to is also located here: http://wiki.debian.org/iptables
After getting a dedicated server from AYK for almost 2 years, I couldn't be more happy. The prices are very reasonable, I haven't experienced a moment of downtime, the support is excellent and truly 24/7. You have a critical issue at 2am? You will have it sorted out in less than 15 minutes. If you are looking for honest, reliable and affordable hosting provider, look no further!
Even though I only have a shared hosting plan, their technical support team responded to my tech support request within the hour, and correctly to boot. (I needed to have a subdomain point to a Tumblr blog by changing the CNAME.)
