I'm having a hard time figuring out how Gentoo loads its iptables rules
via the init script. I've edited /var/lib/iptables/rules-save (adding
rules allowing inbound DHCP, inboubt tcp with the established bit set,
etc, etc) and then run "/etc/init.d/iptables start" which looks like it
runs just fine (it loads the modules ip_tables and iptable_filter). But
when I look at the tables (iptables-save), all I get is this:

# Generated by iptables-save v1.2.8 on Sun Jan 25 11:39:24 2004
*filter
:INPUT ACCEPT [8:8156]
:FORWARD ACCEPT [0:0]
:OUTPUT ACCEPT [7:364]
COMMIT
# Completed on Sun Jan 25 11:39:24 2004

If I add the same rules from hand via the command line, it works just
fine, however.

Anyone have any idea?

Thanks,
Roy
