working with Debian 7.0

working with the examples at

https://wiki.debian.org/iptables


when i write a example for a lo0 table as shown

-A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT


and follow procedure of

iptables-restore < file-name


i do receive a message "line failed" for that line as shown above.


Question: do i need to config a file.


staying in the environment of the istalled Debian 7.0 and doing apropos
loopback shows alsoloop.

doing internet searching shows a lot of info as if a bomb droped from the
sky - but who knows if it is or could be debian 7.0 specific.


any assistance.

thank you
