Probably iptables changed it's default behavior from "allow all" to
"deny all" at startup.
Is there any way to change it back?
I can't change anything after loading any iptable module, because all
programs on filesystem are not accessible after loading...

NFS and iptables definitely takes some care - and there are still holes
- no way to specify ports for all requests...

but this seems odd... you must've had some extant rules that suddenly
seemingly changed behaviour before the modprobe was done
