Firewall won't start on OpenVZ? Print

If your firewall refuses to start on OpenVZ, please do the following:

Stop the IP Tables: service iptables stop

And then edit the following file: nano /etc/apf/conf.apf

Change IFACE_TRUSTED="Etho" to IFACE_TRUSTED="venet0" then save it.

Then you can start the IP tables service iptables start.

Thanks to MrGeekChris for this fix.

Go to Server > Firewall and ensure the Trusted Interfaces: is not checked for etho, then the firewall will start.

Thanks to Paul for the above fix.
