iptables: How to open ports?

H--

I am trying to open a port 1129 on one of my servers. I believe I am half there?

This is the first time I have ever worked with iptables and I think I have done something right. I also would like to know the command to remove the port if needed:

This is my output as now

Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
ACCEPT tcp -- localhost anywhere tcp dpt:1129
ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere anywhere tcp dpt:1129

Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination

I added those by running:

iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -s 127.0.0.1 --dport 1129 -j ACCEPT

and

iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 1129 -j ACCEPT

Any help would be great.

Thanks,

Amy & Michael
