OK here is the output first just the iptables -L then same command as
root and then as sudo
cmcanu...@gateway:~$ iptables -L
iptables v1.4.4: can't initialize iptables table `filter': Permission
denied (you must be root)
Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded.
cmcanu...@gateway:~$ sudo su iptables -L
su: invalid option -- 'L'
Usage: su [options] [LOGIN]
Options:
-c, --command COMMAND pass COMMAND to the invoked shell
-h, --help display this help message and exit
-, -l, --login make the shell a login shell
-m, -p,
--preserve-environment do not reset environment variables,
and
keep the same shell
-s, --shell SHELL use SHELL instead of the default in
passwd
cmcanu...@gateway:~$ ^C
cmcanu...@gateway:~$ sudo iptables -L
