I've been looking at Mark's release of the Cloud Pack(1).  In it there is a 
policy for maintaining Iptables(2).  This is trickier than one might think.  
The promise shown will keep the saved version of what Iptables rules should be 
running correct.  It does not address what is actually running.  New rules can 
be inserted into the kernel without altering the Iptables 'save' file.  What to 
do?

In the past I have compared the output of iptables -L with the ideal output 
stored in file.  If it is different then I reload my master rules.  I am 
curious what others have done.
