This I would do if a *iptables -s* does not save my newly created (security) policies.
Hey Wash, Am not a guru either but some pointers here; What you say is possible if you for example; - Something is flushing your iptables on boot <eg. some commands may be placed here /etc/rc.local> - You didnt save your iptables rules <you could test by restarting the iptables b4 you reboot - service iptables restart> - The iptables-config file is modified not to save on reboot </etc/sysconfig/iptables-config> You could also exec a simple command on CLI then <service iptables save>, then <reboot> - see if it saves.
