[CLUG] Web-based iptables administration

[AJ McKee]

I have subversion repos already setup and a trac wiki set up as well Adam, 
just need the email list. 

Now there are a number of ways to do this. The quickest being to dump the 
iptables rules into a database and then from there generate a firewall 
script. Now there are all sorts of permissions issues we gota look at. I 
presume that the user in plesk who edits the fiirewall rules is the server 
administrator and not joe blogs. 

Again before we write one line of code or paint one pixel, if we define 
exactly what it need to do, then break that down into "modules" we should 
have it built in no time.
