More than is needed. But your "rmmod ipchains" is needed. I forgot
that this was not done by "/etc/rc.d/init.d/ipchains stop". It should
be.
So:
A: for current boot:
service ipchains stop # stop IPChains now.
rmmod ipchains # clear it out of memory
service iptables start # start IPTables now.
B: for future boots
chkconfig ipchains off # select the "off" set if rcN.d entries
automatically
chkconfig iptables on # select the "on" set if rcN.d entries
automatically
A and B can be done in either order.
