Well, I usually just write out my iptables script by hand but after
doing that a dozen times or so after the past couple of years I decided
to try a script.  I used graffix's quicktables script, I believe it is
on freshmeat.net if anyone is interested.  Quick and painless, just
answer some questions and wham, builds a script.  Put it where you want
it and put a call for it in one of your init scripts.  Done.
