hello David, after u configure iptables - directly or via a script issue iptables-save > /etc/sysconfig/iptables then ur conf will be saved in the mentioned file & be available while restarting the service or reboot. else the system will use the default conf that have been set up during the installation of the system. and "iptables-restore" :: resets the conf to the system default which means u lost the conf u just did. thanks.
