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
I recently switched to AYK Solutions from Softlayer for my dedicated server requirements. I received a much better specification server at significantly reduced cost from what Softlayer could offer me, with many of the previously 'extra' features at Softlayer included in the base price offered by AYK. The support was second to none, and they were extremely helpful in transferring all of my old server accounts over for no additional fee whatsoever.
I have had my hosting with AYK since 2006, and it has by far been the best experience I have ever had with any hosting company. The support is always spot on and available around the clock, excellent for me since I'm always working on things at odd hours. They make upgrading to fit needs very clean and easy, the cost is excellent for services received, and they have me as a customer for life.
Very courteous, professional, and willing to help. They truly care about client based relationships and satisfaction. I will definitely refer more clients their way, and highly recommend Ayksolutions to anyone seeking truly the best.
