But based on the iptables rules you posted it looks like the order of the rules is the problem. The first two rules allow everything through. Check the contents of /etc/sysconfig/iptables, that is where the rules should be saved.

So would:
# rpm -e iptables --nodeps # rm /etc/sysconfig/iptables (just to be sure) # yum install iptables
fix his problem?
Of course, that would leave the question of how it was caused in the first place...
No no no! No need to remove iptables and using nodeps is not recommended.
He needs to reconfigure iptables to have a set of rules that allows the services he wants on that server.
