The Perl Toolchain Summit needs more sponsors. If your company depends on Perl, please support this very important event.

Changes for version 1.2 - 2012-03-02

  • Added set_chain_policy() function to allow built-in chain policies to be set to the specified target. iptables/ip6tables does not allow the target to be set for non built-in chains. Behind the scenes this function runs the command "iptables -t <table> -P <chain> <target>".
  • Minor update to print the iptables binary name in 'croak' error conditions. The binary name is either 'iptables' or 'ip6tables'.
  • Minor perldoc updates to render links better (two spaces at the beginning of lines).
