I've been trying to setup pivpn on alpine, but it keeps complaining about some iptables rules not being set, requiring me to run pivpn -d each time the system is started to fix it...

iptables-save > /etc/iptables/rules.v4

Or install iptables-persistent if you’re on a Debian-derivative system.

Maybe iptables-persistent would work for you?

Or if you use something like UFW you can add whatever iptables rules you like to /etc/ufw/after.rules.

Set up a systemd service.
