execute as root
  iptables -L 

you should have a TON of rules show up if it has launched your firewall script, otherwise it will look like

Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination

Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination

which means NO firewall is running.
