From 36a36fc3c41b8b868e8fbd181c50e1ca3ac6d4c5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "/C=EU/ST=EU/CN=Patrick McHardy/emailAddress=kaber@trash.net" Date: Tue, 13 May 2008 11:08:26 +0000 Subject: [patch 3/4] iptables --list-rules command Adds iptables --list-rules (-S) command, acting as a combination of iptables --list and iptables-save. The primary motivation behind this patch is to get iptables-save like output capabilities in iptables-restore, allowing "iptables-restore -n" to be used as a consistent API to iptables for all kind of operations, not only blind updates.. As a bonus iptables also gets the capability of printing the rules as-is. This completely replaces the earlier patch which added the --rules option.
