Shorewall users - Dec 2004 - Diagram of iptables

All,

A couple of days ago, I saw a post about diagramming iptables rules.  I put
together a small perl script to do it.
I have attached both the script and an image of the output.  Please comment if
you find this of any use.

Thanks
Jim

My impression is that the graph produced is harder to follow than the
output of "shorewall status" (but then I''ve looked at a lot
more of the
latter :-) ).

I think I prefer Eduardo''s approach (once I applied the attached
patch).

Thanks, Tom. Patch applied.

Here goes a 0.0.2 version.  May be slightly better. Inserted some error 
checking.

Have fun all...
