.TH grml-iptstate 8 .SH "NAME" grml-iptstate \- startup wrapper script around iptstate .SH SYNOPSIS .B grml-iptstate .SH DESCRIPTION This manual page documents briefly the .B grml-iptstate command. .SH OPTIONS grml-iptstate does not support any options. .SH PURPOSE OF grml-iptstate iptstate (a top-like display of IP Tables state table entries) requires a present kernel module named ip_conntrack, otherwise it does not start. To be able to autostart iptstate on grml (especially in live-cd mode) this wrapper prompts for loading ip_conntrack and starting iptstate afterwards. If the ip_conntrack is present already grml-iptstate automatically invokes iptstate, if the module is not yet ready you will be asked whether you want to load it (just answer with yes or no, by default yes will be assumed). .SH AUTHOR grml-iptstate was written by Michael Prokop . .PP This manual page was written by Michael Prokop for the grml project (but may be used by others).
