Iptables – And the reason why I like real operating systems.
So, many guys have asked me why I like to run real OSes on my production
servers, instead of some flavor of Linux.
Earlier today I did some reading in the iptables.c file, which manages a crucial part
of every important server’s software, namely the firewall. And in shock I found this
comment:
/* If you listen carefully, you can
actually hear this code suck. */
Now if this isn’t a reason to be scared I don’t know, but at least you know
why I like FBSD and SunOS ![]()
