    I think that's a sensible question. I think that the usual lokkit
    arrangement has the user-defined chain as you show
    (RH-Lokkit-0-50-INPUT). But what your output does not show is that is
    also gives this user-defined chain as the target for the INPUT and
    FORWARD chains. I don't know why that's not the case on your machine.
    As shown, your RH-Lokkit... chain never has any effect I think, like
    dead code. Look for a little /usr/sbin/lokkit utility that gives you
    some control over lokkit. Anyway, making your own script of iptables
    commands is probably more flexible and precise. I like this one
