8 Look, that's sample output from portlog-info:
9 === 2004-07-08 12:56 === iptables-1.2.11-r2 ===
10 = /var/log/emerge/4528-iptables-1.2.11-r2.log =
11 ...
12 * This package now includes an initscript which loads and saves
13 * rules stored in /var/lib/iptables/rules-save
14 * This location can be changed in /etc/conf.d/iptables
15 *
16 * If you are using the iptables initsscript you should save your
17 * rules using the new iptables version before rebooting.
18 *
19 * If you are uprading to a >=2.4.21 kernel you may need to rebuild
20 * iptables.
21 *
22 * !!! ipforwarding is now not a part of the iptables initscripts.
23 * Until a more permanent solution is implemented adding the following
24 * to /etc/conf.d/local.start will enable ipforwarding at bootup:
25 * echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/all/forwarding

28 As you can see these *ARE* the einfo lines, so there's no need for other
29 files like iptables.einfo.log, because the information is already there.
30 Or maybe I'm just not getting what you're trying to tell me, which is
31 always a possibility with me... ;-)
