apt-get remove iptables Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done The following packages will be REMOVED: fail2ban ipset iptables shorewall webmin-shorewall 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 5 to remove and 3 not upgraded. Need to get 0B of archives. After unpacking 3174kB disk space will be freed. Do you want to continue? [Y/n] It appears that if I do remove the iptables package, I will have to install a dummy iptables package if I want to keep fail2ban and shorewall. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
