This is a bit bizzare.  First, lokkit should save the state in
/etc/sysconfig/iptables (assuming there is a non-default state to
save--the no-firewall option may delete the file, in which case iptables
will not start at boot even if enabled).  Second, it looks like you
printed the same file and it worked once and didn't work the second time.
