Or "/etc/rc.d/init.d/iptables restart", which is sort of the same thing.
"Linux: There's more than one way to do it. Egads!" :-)
Is his command line ("condrestart") valid? I never heard of that one
before.
Yes. "condrestart" basically checks for the existence of a lock file.
If it exists, it does a restart. If there's no lock file, it does
nothing. In other words, "If it's running, restart it. If it's not,
don't do anything."
