trq Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 iptables needs to be executed as root, simply joining the root group is not sufficient. You could give your apache user permission to execute iptables via sudo. Take a look in your /etc/sudoers file for examples. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
