I am currently using IPTABLES through my firewall and it works nicely. All you need to do is run
setup then go to system services and disable ipchains and enable iptables. reboot and your good to
go. As a matter of fact I use iptables to block the NIMDA virus from my network. works very well.
over the past week I have blocked over 91 ip address. This is a shell script in addition to a
couple of perl scripts that are setup on my box to scan the access_log on apache and automatically
add them to my iptables. this is also added to the iptables script at boot up. I set up a cron job
to automatically do this. If anyone would like it I would be happy to share! :)

Subject: iptables being denied because ipchains is being used?
I have loaded RedHat 7.2 onto my computer for the 2.4 kernel capabilities. Especially the
ipchains capabilities. When I went to run any iptables commands I came to find out that that the
iptables command was not available. But that the ipchains command is? In fact it looks like the
default RedHat install used ipchains instead of iptables? I have the 2.4.7-10 kernel. Anybody know
what the H$!! is up with that, and how I can use iptables. My understanding is that iptables is
much better than ipchains.
THX in advance,
Kent Miller
