Using the depend() subroutine in the init script. My /etc/init.d/iptables contains this: depend() { before net use logger } Which *should* make iptables start before net.* (maybe except net.lo). And sure enough, the boot sequence is: dns-domain net.lo random hdparm metalog acpid alsa gpm iptables net.eth0 portmap nfs sshd So I don't exactly saee the problem - I haven't tweaked any of the relevant scripts...
