Binary package hint: nanny

in Ubuntu 10.10 I am trying to use Gnome Nanny 2.29.4-0ubuntu3

I have setting up the calendar to restrict the internet using time.
After restarting the computer the internet is active, and the gnome nanny panel indicator say the internet Will be active in XX hours.

     sudo service nanny start
     sudo iptables -L Nanny
    iptables: No chain/target/match by that name.

after restart nanny, i have the iptable rules and internet is blocked
    sudo service nanny restart

I just tested nanny in Ubuntu 11.04 and configured web browser restrictions in "Nanny Admin Console". It seems these restrictions are activated straight away after I clicked Apply button:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo iptables -L Nanny
Chain Nanny (1 references)
target prot opt source destination
DROP tcp -- anywhere anywhere multiport dports www,https,http-alt owner UID match ubuntu state NEW,RELATED,ESTABLISHED TIME from 01:00:00 to 12:30:00 on Mon

I'm running from LiveUSB, so I can't test how nanny works after restarting, maybe someone can test and write a comment here?

Btw, I think space symbol between ! and /bin/sh in /etc/init.d/nanny file doesn't cause any problems, because most files in /etc/init.d/ have space in first line, for example /etc/init.d/bootlogd /etc/init.d/reboot /etc/init.d/bluetooth /etc/init.d/saned /etc/init.d/rsync
