Fireloader

I work with iptables a lot to manage firewall rules. So to help me, I’ve created a script to manage iptables rules - automatically saving and restoring from files. Too many times I’ve lost rules when the server restarted and I forgot to save the rules first. So this script will register as a service and save rules automatically when the system shuts down and load them at boot.

Firewall rules are kept in a separate file, /etc/fireloader.conf in iptables-save format.
