That is true if you add it to your session the firewall wont be started until after x. Have you tried:
sudo /sbin/firestarter in your rc.local? |
To the best of my knowledge, the firewall rules get loaded at boot. Firestarter and Guarddog are just graphical interfaces for setting up firewall rules, they aren't the actual firewall.

Yes, I tried sudo /sbin/firestarter in rc.local after adding the required rights in groups.
As said before: ports were closed acc. Shields up after boot. Ports were stealth after sudo firestarter. Seems to me that that the firewall-rules are not implemented fully during boot. |
If you enter "firestarter -h" you will get all the parameter options.
firestarter -s starts firestarter but without the GUI. It just brings the message "Firewall started" I have put the command in /etc/rc.d/rc.local It works fine - my firewall starts at boot. |
