[ILUG] iptables

[HAMILTON,DAVID (HP-Ireland,ex2)]

'service iptables start' does work.
I'd never seen that service command before.  Nice one...

'chkconfig --list iptables' gives:
iptables	0:off  1:off  2:off  3:off  4:off  5:off  6:off
whatever that means.....

It's from a functionality point it's a pain.  I'm already hiding behind
another bank of firewalls, I just need the NAT....

Does (as root)
  service iptables start
work?

What's the output of (also as root)
  chkconfig --list iptables
?
