## Example of a mason firewall script
##=============================================================================
#
## ---------------------------------------------------------------------
## Allow all local connections
## ---------------------------------------------------------------------
#/sbin/iptables -A INPUT  -i lo -j ACCEPT
#/sbin/iptables -A OUTPUT -o lo -j ACCEPT
#
## ---------------------------------------------------------------------
## Allow ESTABLISHED and RELATED packets globally, to drastically reduce
## the number of reported rules in learning mode
## ---------------------------------------------------------------------
## Hint: "There is a certain feature in iptables that is not so well 
## documented and may therefore be overlooked by a lot of people [...]
## If you use state NEW, packets with the SYN bit unset will get through 
## your firewall." Cited from:
