Hi there! My default iptables config has a "-A FORWARD -j DROP" at the end of it. So when miniupnpd appends its FORWARD rule it gets ignored. What is the best way to ensure that the FORWARD rule is inserted before the "catchall" DROP rule?

Thank you in advance!

miniupnpd insert its rules in a specific CHAIN that should be evaluated first. See
