ipchains isn't a daemon. Like route, it sets up data structures
right in the kernel.

-L, --list
List all rules in the selected chain. If no chain is selected,
all chains are listed. It is legal to specify the -Z (zero)
option as well, in which case no chain may be specified. The
exact output is effected by the other arguments given.
So, "sbin/ipchains --list" is what u want.
