Bastille Firewall

How do I set bastille-firewall to start at boot? I've selected the option in the bastille configuration program and I've tried to use the commands it says for Debian. I'm running Debian Woody and for some reason the firewall just does not start at boot. Can anyone help?

You mean this?: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugre...no\&bug=147643

Please consult the manual and docs, then your distro's docs, the application's site. When reporting a problem please don't assume everyone knows what you've done by just telling you've done it, mention the application's version, what you tried, what the output was, you know, the relevant bits...

Thanks for the link but that didn't really fix it. I still have to start the firewall manually by /etc/ini.d/bastille-firewall start. I'm running the 1.3.0-5 version of Bastille from the website you linked. Can you provide a little more guidance please?

You mean like in "ln -sf /etc/init.d/bastille-firewall /etc/rc(insert your runlevel).d/S10bastille-firewall" ?
