[TriLUG] iptables & FUD

[John Vaughters]

Also agreed, I get frustrated with some of the newer tools that greatly increase your typing. To the point that I start to wonder if I am on the path of Grandpahood, where we curse all new and stick to all old schooling those whipersnapers at every chance, only to one day to die a good John Henry death by the true new technologies that you never saw coming.

I find that many of the very oldest solutions are still the most elegant. They 
always have the advantage of simplicity, being written to work well with limited 
resources of all types, conforming (for the most part) to the Unix/Linux 
philosophy, and having been thoroughly debugged over many years.
