@Michael I assume you are templating the /etc/sysconfig/iptables in CentOS,
and /etc/iptables/rules.v4 in Ubuntu files? I just figured out that you can
install the iptables-persistent package in Ubuntu, I hadn't been sure what
files you were referring to before that...

So, a reload on CentOS would be ```service iptables restart```. What about
Ubuntu? ```cat /etc/iptables/rules.v4 | iptables-restore``` ?

@Brian, I took a look at fwbuilder. Looks almost as complicated as iptables
itself. At least for my limited needs. Maybe if I was doing something more
complicated... Thanks for the tip.
