QuoteHi,
So what you're doing is totally valid, but it feels a little like trying to write a website in assembly language .. :-)
Many (many) years ago I spent a lot of time playing with "iptables" and related tools, but I ended up with two problems;
- Making it work in the first place can be problematic or difficult (at best)
- Once you've done it (assuming a reasonable degree of complexity), you can't verify it "by eye", so essentially it's un-readable and/or unmaintainable
