Re: [TCLUG:21175] Kernel 2.3.99-pre6 with IPChains

["Thomas T. Veldhouse" <veldy@veldy.net>]

That kernel uses netfilter instead of ipchains.  I believe there is an
ipchains module you can compile and load for ipchains compatibility - but it
is not the default.  Also, why don't you use the 2.4test7 kernel instead -
it is bound to be a safer bet!
