Hi, I was wondering if someone would be able to give me the correct way of disabling all network activity (iptables commands/script) during the boot process so that my network is inoperable during bootup until I activate it manually. I'm unsure in which startup script I would place this on debian. Thanks Bart
I'm not sure this will help, but couldn't you simply disable the the interface, e.g., comment out "eth0 auto" from /etc/network/interfaces? Then when you want connect you can use ifup. (You run the iptable script with "pre-up".)
