On boot iptables script in /etc/runlenvels/boot/iptables complains about
iptables-restore. I know that /var/lib/iptables/rules-save should exist, but what to 
put
int that file? Thanx. :o)

I think you simply touch that file. it will stop complaining.  and
then if type:
/etc/init.d/iptables save 

it will save your current rules.

iptables -L will list your current rules. 

and then you can add rules. to keep bad guys out.  I bet the gentoo
security document has a good basic start, but also www.netfilter.org
is a good resource.
