Re: IP Chains

I don't understand why you want to connect IPCHAINS to your PHP script. Normally your IPCHAINS (or IPTABLES) firewall would be running anyway, wouldn't it? Maybe I've missed something, but I don't see how the two are linked. I'd have the PHP script check username and password, and if valid, go ahead and do whatever the script determines. I'd also have IPCHAINS running the whole time and configured to let any authorised user out/in. But there would be no direct link between the two.
