Hi Bernhard,

Added FIREHOL_AUTOSAVE to control the location on the config file.
If empty (default) FireHOL detects RedHat and Debian.

FireHOL now blocks all traffic by itself without calling
/etc/init.d/iptables panic.

FireHOL now has a numeric definition of squid.

Could you please download the latest CVS version and check it on your
systems?

Thank you again for reporting all these.
