[pipt] howto request for iptables module

[<com...@gm...>]

Hi,

I was looking for the usage of python-iptables module but i couldnt find an=
y=20
example. Tyring with ipython and importing the iptables i checked the metho=
ds=20
and the source file but couldnt visualise how i will add or insert a new ru=
le=20
to the iptables ruleset. Is there any document or example that i can check =
or=20
may you please just simply show me a simple example that is inserting a rul=
e?

I will use this module only for inserting a new rule, now. But in the futur=
e i=20
may need to work on the iptables ruleset, read it and get dublicated rules=
=20
and clear them out. So do you suggest me to use this module, because in the=
=20
email list i read the project is on hold.

You can currently only read out the rules. Even then I doubt it works as
it has suffered a couple of years of bitrot.

I just don't have time to work on this project anymore. Feel free to
work on it however.
