Ubuntu /etc/rules.v4 & .v6

[Freeaqingme]

Hi,

I'm trying to use the puppet-iptables module. I'm noticing that the /etc/iptables/rules file is filled with the proper contents. However, when I do 'iptables -L' none of those (no rules) show up.

The file /etc/init.d/iptables-persistent loads two files: /etc/iptables/rules.v4 & /etc/iptables/rules.v6

Am I missing something here, or is Ubuntu 12.04 not supported (yet)?

Tnx.

@example42 Could you let me know if you have any fix for this, preferably included ipv6 support? If not, I will try to think of something myself (and of course supply a pull request ;))

Hi, haven't had the occasion to look at this. To fix this to work on Ubuntu 12.04, at least for IPv4 you can just work on: $config_file = $::operatingsystem ? { /(?i:Debian|Ubuntu|Mint)/ => '/etc/iptables/rules', default => '/etc/sysconfig/iptables', } in params.pp Should become something like: $config_file = $::operatingsystem ? { /(?i:Debian|Mint)/ => '/etc/iptables/rules', Ubuntu => $::operatingsystemrelease ? { '12.04' => '/etc/iptables/rules.v4', default => '/etc/iptables/rules', } default => '/etc/sysconfig/iptables', }

Please test this and pull request if it works ;-)

For IPV6 support something more is needed.

Sweet, I had preliminary fixed this using a symlink.

However, IPv6 still isn't supported, so in that regard this issue is still valid. Updating description, may implement something myself initially ;)

Edit: for clarity I"ll add a new issue.
