Topic: help me to reinstall iptables

Hi,
I have flushed all iptables by using iptables -F and saved the service which I got from iredmail and saved the service.
Can anyone please guide me how to reconfigure the iptables

Regards

It's /etc/default/iptables on Debian/Ubuntu.
You can simply copy it to /etc/default/iptables, make sure port of OpenSSH server is allowed, default is port 22. Then restart iptables service.

I have copied it to /etc/default/iptables, later i have saved the ip tables by using "iptable-save", but i am not able to restart the ip tables
"/etc/init.d/iptables" not able to locate and
"service iptables stop/start/restart" giving error like unrecognized service
