Did you include ipchains module when you recompiled the kernel? -Kastus On Tue, Mar 27, 2001 at 01:31:22PM -0600, ESix wrote:

IPTables is backwords compatible? Can I just make a link from /sbin/ipchains /usr/sbin/iptables? I will try this but surely I am not the only one who has run into with all of you that have upgraded your kernel...

iirc, there is an IPchains kernel module that you have to include for backward-compatibility with ipchains in kernel 2.4.x -- -=[Tigersden Internet Services]=- ************COMING SOON************* -=[For All Your Internet Needs]=- * HTTP://www.tigersden.demon.co.uk * -=[P.G.P.
