Hi.
we have got system - Rocky Linux release 9.5
which default missing iptables commands , system using only NFT.

compiled fwcloud script contains references to iptables commands per example to clear firewall:

Code: 
iptables_default_filter_policy() {
  $IPTABLES  -P OUTPUT  $1
  $IPTABLES  -P INPUT   $1
  $IPTABLES  -P FORWARD $1
  $IP6TABLES -P OUTPUT  $1
  $IP6TABLES -P INPUT   $1
  $IP6TABLES -P FORWARD $1
}

reset_iptables_v4() {
  $IPTABLES --flush
  $IPTABLES -X
  $IPTABLES --flush
  $IPTABLES --flush FORWARD
  $IPTABLES --flush INPUT
  $IPTABLES --flush OUTPUT
  $IPTABLES --table nat --flush
  $IPTABLES --table nat --delete-chain
  $IPTABLES --table mangle --flush
  $IPTABLES --table mangle --delete-chain
  $IPTABLES --delete-chain
}

whole script is working fine but there are errors on startup:

error are caused by missing "iptables" command,
how can modify compilation process to don't use iptables command on NFT only system ?

in fwcloud config this firewall is set compiler to NFT
 
as a workaround for this I've created two bash scripts : iptables and ip6tables :

Code: 
#!/bin/bash
exit 0

error in log is gone - but this is ugly hack :(
 
Hi,
It is a bug in the policy compilation process.
I'm going to generate a issue related with this and we will generate a patch release in order to solve it.

Let us a couple of days for solve it and thank you very much for the report!
 
We have published a new patch release that solves this problems.
Please, update your FWCloud installation and let me know if this patch release solves your problema.
 
Hi.
only half of problem was resolved :(

I've compiled script after update and there are errors :
[10:25:49] - Uploading firewall policy (127.0.0.1)
FWCloud.net - Loading firewall policy generated: Mon Dec 02 2024 10:25:48 GMT+0100 (Central European Standard Time)

/etc/fwcloud/fwcloud.sh: line 89: -t: command not found
/etc/fwcloud/fwcloud.sh: line 94: -t: command not found
/etc/fwcloud/fwcloud.sh: line 89: -t: command not found

/etc/fwcloud/fwcloud.sh: line 89: -t: command not found
/etc/fwcloud/fwcloud.sh: line 94: -t: command not found

problematic function :
reset_iptables_v6() {
IPv6_TABLES="filter nat mangle"
for table in $IPv6_TABLES; do
$IP6TABLES -t $table -L -n | while read c chain rest; do
if test "X$c" = "XChain" ; then
$IP6TABLES -t $table -F $chain
fi
done
$IP6TABLES -t $table -X
done
}
 
Sorry us, we forgot to add the filter to this function.
A new patch release (2.0.16) is cooking now in our CI, it will be available in a few minutes.
Please, let me know if with it the problem is solved.
