iptables does not start on boot
Hello,

I have an issue with iptables. The rules are already configured in /etc/sysconfig/iptables but when i reboot the node the service is not running or at least i can't see my rules.

Below the configuration i did to start the service during boot.

Code:
[rtw-ww1]# chkconfig --list iptables
iptables 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off
[rtw-ww1]# ls -ltrh /etc/rc3.d/S08iptables
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Jun 18 10:31 /etc/rc3.d/S08iptables -> ../init.d/iptables
[rtw-ww1]# who -r
run-level 3 2014-06-20 08:42
[rtw-ww1]#

Although when i start the service manually i can see that the rules are apply.
In addition i see an error when i try to stop the service.

Code:
[rtw-ww1]# service iptables stop
iptables: Flushing firewall rules: [ OK ]
iptables: Setting chains to policy ACCEPT: fptun raw nat ma[FAILED]ter
iptables: Unloading modules: [ OK ]
[rtw-ww1]# service iptables start
iptables: Applying firewall rules: [ OK ]
[rtw-ww1]#


Any idea?

Thanks in advance

It appears you have an error in your IPTABLE rules. If you provide us with a copy of the rules, we can probably figure out where the problem is.
