[ale] rc.local

[terry at bitlinx.com (Terry Bailey)]

I have a project that uses IP tables.  If I type the following in by hand 
everything works; however, if I place the line in /etc/rc.d/rc.local it 
doesn' work.


/sbin/iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -m tcp -p tcp --dport 80 -j DNAT 
--to-destination 217.135.152.23:8080


It did not work for SUSE 10 because rc.local is not used,  so I switched to 
Fedora and it still does not work.


I have a small appliance where this does work with /etc/rc.d/rc.local.   Is 
it the case that this command must be placed in a file and the file be 
called from rc.local?
