Subject: iptables on guest

I have iptables on my host, but I installed iptables on guest as well
(having two firewall levels won't hurt). However I couldn't find
/etc/sysconfig/iptables file so I copied one from my host.
Now when I try to start iptables I get following error:

bash-3.2# service iptables start
Applying iptables firewall rules: iptables-restore v1.3.5:
iptables-restore: unable to initializetable 'filter'

Error occurred at line: 3
Try `iptables-restore -h' or 'iptables-restore --help' for more information.
                                                           [FAILED]

If I try to run iptables-restore it hangs forever. Is it allowed to run
iptables both on host and guest?
