Re: [SLE] Recompiled 2.4.0 - It Runs - No IPCHAINS

9 Jan 2001


      Hello Ed,
on Tuesday, January 09, 2001 at 00:20:48 -0500,
you sat in front of your keyboard and wrote:
...
Evidently IPCHAINS has been replaced with "netfilter".  I depended on
pmfirewall for security, but all I get are errors to try "ipchains -h".
I have DSL connection and feel I must have a firewall.
Any ideas?
There is an ipchains compatibility module in the 2.4 kernel under
"Networking options -> IP: Netfilter Configuration". Once it is built,
do a modprobe ipchains and you're right.

Regards...
