I'll flame you now because you were wrong (As you requested). IPCHAINS works with 2.2, IPTABLES works with 2.4...

You have to use the right one, even thought the package/module for both shows up (at least in Woody) and loads, but if you're using the 2.4 kernel the earlier stuff just "fails" like you're describing. http://www.linux.org/docs/ldp/howto/Firewall-HOWTO-8.html Curt- <SNIP!>
