Bug Description
Running Ubuntu 10.04 server over linode.com, the "minimal" distro shipped by default does not save iptables rules by default across reboots. The ufw package is a convenience iptables wrapper, however, most experienced admins will not want to discard their iptables knowledge and flexibility for ufw.
The wiki page: https:/
mentions various scripts and hacks to achieve that, although it should be a distro's job to do something that common. I suggest shipping a system service that will save/restore services like centos/redhat, and that can be easily enabled/disabled as per the admin's needs

How do I get this fixed. Would supplying a sysV script to save/load iptables rules help ?
