Greetings.
Is it possible to use a script generated for fwbuilder in Arch? I have an already generated script that I have used in other distributions but in Arch I cannot load it.
Thank you.

Why can't you load it?
If fwbuilder isn't working I can recommend this:
http://easyfwgen.morizot.net/gen/
It generates Iptables/netfilter rules easily as you wish.

I save the generated script in / etc / iptables / iptables.rules but when I try to load the rules I mark error lines of the script.
This script is compatible with Arch? because I manually iptables file in this format:
* filter
: INPUT DROP [0:0]
: FORWARD DROP [0:0]
: OUTPUT DROP [0:0]
# internal interfaces
#-A INPUT-i lo-m state - state NEW-j ACCEPT
#-A OUTPUT-o lo-m state - state NEW-j ACCEPT
COMMIT
And if you load it, but the fwbuilder script does not have that format. You can load a fwbuilder script? or I'm doing wrong.

I have just read it, but it does not clarify if it is possible to use or not, or maybe I have not understood well with my evil English

fwbuilder is in the repos so it should be OK. But it is dependant on iptables and that is explained here, in the great arch wiki:
