When I do that, after I reboot, I get this:
[root@mars ~]# iptables -L
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
Were the rules set up the way you wanted before running the service command?
Did it appear to work correctly? You should get output like the following:
Saving firewall rules to /etc/sysconfig/iptables: [ OK ]
Did /etc/sysconfig/iptables get updated?
Things that would cause problems are not running the command as root or
not having /sbin in your path when you run the command.
