Right - thanks for that! I assume it works well and it's been tested
for normal and ppp0 connectivity over there. How do you trigger it?
Can you load the ruleset even if ppp0 is down?

I am wondering -- do we want local admins teams to be able to add
rules relatively easily, in normal iptables syntax (meaning they can
copy rules from books and howtos)? If so, a template to run through
'sed' might work better?

What do you think?

cheers,
