Description Michael Redinger 2000-08-15 15:20:54 UTC 
ipchains is started before the network comes up and therefore before NFS
filesystems are started. Well, that's how it should/must be. However, the
ipchains startup script uses /usr/bin/cut which is not yet available if
/usr is a NFS filesystem.
Comment 1 Nalin Dahyabhai 2000-08-15 20:09:21 UTC 
Fixed in ipchains-1.3.9-15.  Thanks!
Comment 2 Tim Waugh 2000-08-16 17:13:55 UTC 
The sed scripts need more work though:

# service ipchains start
/etc/init.d/ipchains: [: 16-21: integer expression expected

How about:

KERNELMIN=`uname -r | sed 's,.*\.\([0-9]\+\)\(-.*\)\?,\1,g'`
Comment 3 Nalin Dahyabhai 2000-08-16 18:40:54 UTC 
Er, yeah.  Fixed (really, I mean it this time) in ipchains-1.3.9-16.
