Hi, The current behaviour of a default Gentoo install is to load iptables after the network has been initialised. Upon shutting down likewise iptables is shutdown then the network interface. This strikes me as presenting a window of opportunity when the computer is exposed without iptables, albeit a small one.
Do people on this list think there is any value in re-arranging this order by default? Jon -- gentoo-security@gentoo.org mailing list
