[plug] Firewall

[Paul Dean]

Hya Jon,

Is the server running RH?
If so you can run 'service iptables restart'.
But becareful you must have a /etc/sysconfig/iptables file with all your
rules set in it, otherwise iptables will start with no rules set.
This also applies to ipchains if you are still using the older firewall
style.

Hope this Helps..
