Textconfig tools for arp/ebtables

Hello!

I've been missing the tools to handle text configuration files
for ebtables and arptables:
- /etc/sysconfig/ebtables
- /etc/sysconfig/arptables

So I've made some perl scripts very similar to iptables-save
and iptables-restore. They don't do atomic changes to configuration
and don't store counters, but they do enable me to
have a full SysV startup config file for a firewalls with
hash (#) comments.

I've also modified the Dag Wieers ebtables SysV startup
script and made one also for arptables. Hopefully someone
else might find them usable or maybe they could even
become a part of the official ebtables/arptables tarball ?

If you find any bugs, please report or post a fix :).

Btw.: I've also created (S)RPMs files for Fedora Core 2
(packages are not very distro specific). Anyone interested ?
