service ipchains stop # Stop IPChains that may be running now.
service iptables on # Start IPTables now.
chkconfig ipchains off # Stop IPChains from running on boot up.
chkconfig iptables on # Start IPTables on boot up.
That should be all there is to it. If you want more information on what
gets done when IPChains is stopped check the /etc/rc.d/init.d/ipchains
file. {You can run that file as root, too.)
