When you do
  # service iptables save
it over-writes /etc/sysconfig/iptables with the active set of
iptables, so your changes are lost.  One way to do what
you want is to modify /etc/sysconfig/iptables, then do
  # service iptables restart
This will reload the iptables from /etc/sysconfig/iptables

'service iptables save' tells iptables to take what's running in iptables
RIGHT NOW and save it to that file.  so your added lines got overwritten.
so what previous replies have been expecting you to do is
boot up
login as root
start doing your commands e.g. iptables -I INPUT -s 192.168.0.0/16 -I eth0
-j DROP
get all the iptables command entries set to how you want them, check with
iptables -L
then run 'service iptabels save'
and reboot just to be sure all your rules got saved and are restored after
a boot. (although it shouldn't technically be required)

Re: [CentOS] [CEntOS] - problem with iptables

sorry, but now if I modify /etc/sysconfig/iptables and I add two strings,
per example:

output omitted
-
-A INPUT -s ddns.no-ip.org -p icmp -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -j DROP
--
output omitted

and I do:

service iptables save
and
restart my iptables firewall, output iptables -L is:

-A INPUT -j DROP
-A INPUT -s ddns.no-ip.org -p icmp -j ACCEPT


why?

ChriG, thank you for your help
I solved the problem but until now it had never happened with the VPS.
iptables first started out and then edit the file /etc/sysconfig/iptables
and chkconfig iptables on

good to know
many thanks

After service iptables start do:

service iptables save

This saves your configuration for the next restart / reboot

[CentOS] [CEntOS] - problem with iptables

2013-10-10 Thread Paolo De Michele
hi all,

I have a problem with iptables on CentOS 6.2.
I configured:

chkconfig iptables on
and the file /etc/sysconfig/iptables

if you reboot the machine configurations are not loaded.
iptables-L gives me the default configurations (not assigned)
if I (a machine booted): service iptables start then then it works.

how can I fix?
thanks in advance
