Add iptables configuration for CentOs. #14

Closed dkinzer closed 6 years ago

dkinzer commented 11 years ago

The CentOS VM firewall is very restrictive out of the box. This commit uses iptables to reconfigure the firewall so that ports 80, 443, and 22 are open for business. This is the last step needed to make CentOs boxes work with the drupal-cookbook.

With regard to the firewall recipe that comes with this cookbook: Unfortunately it does not work for CentOS because CentOS useses iptables for the firewall. The README for the iptables cookbook mentions that there was an effort to merge iptables into the firewall cookbook as an LWRP. However, as of the time of this commit nothing has come of that effort.

Why don't we use iptables then for everything and remove the firewall cookbook dependency? Let me know if this makes sense or not. Thx!

That makes sense to me, but I'm not a firewall expert so I don't know what the implications will be for non iptables users.
