More than is needed. But your "rmmod ipchains" is needed. I forgot
that this was not done by "/etc/rc.d/init.d/ipchains stop". It should
be.


So:

A: for current boot:

service ipchains stop    # stop IPChains now.
rmmod ipchains           # clear it out of memory
service iptables start   # start IPTables now.

B: for future boots

chkconfig ipchains off   # select the "off" set if rcN.d entries
automatically
chkconfig iptables on    # select the "on" set if rcN.d entries
automatically


A and B can be done in either order.
