Summary0008287: After installing iptables-persistent on my system, it can take even a few minutes to log in and get to the desktop.
Description

uname -a output: Linux kali64 6.1.0-kali7-amd64 0000001 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Debian 6.1.20-2kali1 (2023-04-18) x86_64 GNU/Linux
'dpkg -s iptables-persistent | grep' output: 1.0.19
After iptables-persistent is installed on my system, save the rules by typing 'iptables-save > /etc/iptables/rules.v4'and then restart the computer.
After enter the password on the login page, the desktop is stuck for several minutes. After removing iptables-persistent, this phenomenon does not occur. I wrote a self-starting script to do the same thing, and here's that it says: 'iptables-restore < /etc/iptables/rules.v4'. The same problem occurs when you restart your computer. I used the ufw with no errors.

I reproduced the error on another computer, which means it wasn't a device problem.

The iptables rules are probably insufficient causing something to wait for a timeout (e.g. access to localhost is blocked)

The rule I'm testing is simple:
iptables -P INPUT DROP;
Iptables -I INPUT -p all -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT

If this is indeed a plain iptables problem better get some help from a support forum :-)

You should look at the logs to see what hangs exactly. journalctl will probably tell you, or "systemd-analyse blame | head" can also help.

In any case, not a bug in Kali, so I'm closing this ticket.
