# dyniptables
rebuild dynamic IPtables chain with DNS lookups of named hosts
### Server prep and usage:
1. Place script in /usr/local/sbin/dyniptables.sh (root:root, 0744)
2. Add to system on-boot iptables rules a new filter chain and (j)ump:
```
:DYNAMIC - [0:0]
-A INPUT -j DYNAMIC
```
...where DYNAMIC is the name of the $DCHAIN in dyniptables.conf
3. Add to root's crontab a refresh every 6 hours:
```
5 */6 * * * /usr/local/sbin/dyniptables.sh
```
4. Add an override.conf to systemd iptables startup:
```
DEB clones: `systemctl edit netfilter-persistent.service`
or
RPM clones: `systemctl edit iptables.service` (IPv4)
`systemctl edit ip6tables.service` (IPv6)
[Service]
ExecStartPost=/usr/local/sbin/dyniptables.sh # (DEB, all rules)
or
ExecStartPost=/usr/local/sbin/dyniptables.sh -4 # (RPM, IPv4 only)
ExecStartPost=/usr/local/sbin/dyniptables.sh -6 # (RPM, IPv6 only)
```
