I need a script to add a users workstation ip to /etc/sysconfig/iptables and then run a service iptables reload. I need the same type of script for removing this rule from iptables.
I found the code below on a different forum.
It's somewhat what I need to do. It includes add and remove options, but instead of adduser it needs to reflect the iptable rule such as
iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp -s xxx.xxx.xx.xxx --dport 22 -m comment --**comment "testing for user1" -j ACCEPT.
The ip address itself needs to be passed as a parameter, so I can execute as
./script 155.154.15.00
I am using RHEL version 6.4.
Any feedback is appreciated.
