I set up a ruleset for iptables v1.2.11 and want to load it automatically at system start-up. Since I wanted it to act independently, I prefered the Sys-V way(as opposed to the pre-up/post-down at /etc/network/interfaces). I figured that it should be loaded before is started 'networking' and unloaded after 'networking' is stopped.
What I came to realize is that no kill symbolic link existed for networking So, my first question is: - when does 'networking' come down? Secondly, I come from a Red Had background and find it hard to understand how System-V style init scripts are implemented in Debian. For example, in the most used start/kill link containers such as /etc/rc3.d, /etc/rc5.d no kill links are present. Which brings me to my second question: - does anyone know of any place I can get insight into the Debian implementation of initscripts?
