I've one RPM package which I need to update on production server with some customer iptables rules, and my previous version of the package have some sysconfig/iptables-custom rules inside. The new version of my package does not have these rules, so I assume that the update process will remove my custom rules inside this folder, but will this update do a COMMIT on the iptables, and flush the customer rules ?

Thanks in advance...

  • You should be mounting a scratch monkey if you are anything less than 101% sure of what will happen. Not knowing the package (is it stock? custom?) we really can't answer this.

Sounds like this RPM was custom built? Hard to say what it will do in that case. You either need to test it on a non-production system or extract it with rpm2cpio and look at the SPEC to see what it will do.

(Unless you're specifically doing something in %post, iptables isn't going to pick it up.)
