Startup Notes

The component cannot be launched directly from the command line of the operating system in an autonomous mode (autonomously from other components). It is launched automatically by the Dr.Web ConfigD configuration daemon when needed. To manage the operation of the component, you can use the Dr.Web Ctl command-line-based management tool for Dr.Web for UNIX Mail Servers (it is called by using the drweb-ctl command).

To get documentation about this component of the product from the command line, use the following command: man 1 drweb-firewall.
