[KLUG Members] iptables run as root

[bill]

I've begun implementing IP masquerading using iptables (kernal 2.4,
RH7.1).

In order to run the rc.firewall file, I have to be root.  If I'm not
root, it won't run.  Is that right?

It doesn't make sense to have to leave the box running with root logged
in.

Any suggestions/explanations appreciated.

kind regards,
