ip6tables v1.2.9 missing ip6tables-save script

[xiando]

I've got IPv6 up and running on my LAN. When I wanted to use ip6tables to secure my problems I ran into some trouble.

When I tried to save the rules with

/etc/init.d/ip6tables save

like I did when first using iptables I found that

ip6tables-save and ip6tables-restore are missing. (when installing with USE=ipv6).

After too much pain I found someone else had posted a solution at

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39833

a month ago. The solution was very simple, all I had to do was slightly change the ebuild.

Good luck with IPv6
