Description of problem: The new ruleset is written to /etc/sysconfig/iptables with several rules prepended with the string 'iptables', which breaks the configuration (see second example line): -A FORWARD -j RH-Firewall-1-INPUT iptables -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT The error on 'service iptables restart': [root@as /]# service iptables restart Flushing firewall rules: [ OK ] Setting chains to policy ACCEPT: filter [ OK ] Unloading iptables modules: [ OK ] Applying iptables firewall rules: Bad argument `iptables' Error occured at line: 10 Try `iptables-restore -h' or 'iptables-restore --help' for more information. [FAILED] [root@as /]# Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.2.0-1 How reproducible: Every time. Run redhat-config-securitylevel and click 'Ok' to get the default configuration.
Created attachment 93485 [details] Example /etc/sysconfig/iptables file.
Fixed in 1.2.1-1.
