Did you test this on a full Rawhide system, or merely an F14 with these two packages taken from Rawhide?


On my Rawhide system:

# systemctl enable iptables.service
iptables.service is not a native service, redirecting to /sbin/chkconfig.
Executing /sbin/chkconfig iptables on

What output do you get instead?
Do you have the file /etc/rc.d/init.d/iptables ?

Comment 2 Lennart Poettering 2011-02-08 12:22:35 UTC
iptables is still a SysV service, and thus has no native systemd service file. systemd supports SysV services just fine. So I don't really see a bug here? 

Closing, feel free to reopen if I am misunderstanding the situation here.
