[Solved] s6 and iptables / sysctl

15 August 2020, 22:28:23

Pardon my ignorance, I’m coming from Arch with systemd. I know how to set up iptables on Arch with systemd and make it persistent on startup, but I’m not entirely sure how to do it on Artix with s6. I did install the “iptables-s6” package and have my custom iptables.rules in the “/etc/iptables” directory. Is that all that’s needed for persistent iptables rules to load at startup?

You must activate it at boot, of course, as with all another unit systems.

Ok awesome, I assume I would use “s6-scripts” for my custom sysctl.conf file as well?

s6-scripts isn't relevant here. Just add iptables to the default bundle.
