Thanks, that made the file.

[root /root]$ service iptables save
Saving current rules to /etc/sysconfig/iptables:           [  OK  ]
[root /root]$ cat /etc/sysconfig/iptables
# Generated by iptables-save v1.2.6a on Mon Nov  4 10:14:15 2002
*filter
:INPUT ACCEPT [800:348408]
:FORWARD ACCEPT [0:0]
:OUTPUT ACCEPT [1738:345891]
COMMIT
# Completed on Mon Nov  4 10:14:15 2002

and, if I set the security to 'High', it now changes the file:

[root /root]$ cat /etc/sysconfig/iptables
# Firewall configuration written by lokkit
# Manual customization of this file is not recommended.
# Note: ifup-post will punch the current nameservers through the
#       firewall; such entries will *not* be listed here.
*filter
:INPUT ACCEPT [0:0]
:FORWARD ACCEPT [0:0]
:OUTPUT ACCEPT [0:0]
:RH-Lokkit-0-50-INPUT - [0:0]
-A INPUT -j RH-Lokkit-0-50-INPUT
-A RH-Lokkit-0-50-INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT
-A RH-Lokkit-0-50-INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --syn -j REJECT
-A RH-Lokkit-0-50-INPUT -p udp -m udp -j REJECT
COMMIT

so, this appears to be functioning.  thanks.
