hi, in a sysadmin-book I've read, that with kernel 2.4 the "iptables" should be used.
now I have done a lookup with lsmod and have seen, that there was NO iptables but an ipchains. then I have done a rmmod ipchains and was trying at first a modprobe iptables. the answer was " there is no iptables-modul", then I tried it again with insmod iptables, but got this here : [root@jojobaer /]# insmod iptables insmod: iptables: no module by that name found Now I was looking with locate iptables and have found it in "/sbin/iptables". Is there no module available, called "iptables" for mdk 8.2 ? and what is this prog "/sbin/iptables" ? how to use it ? am sorry about my bloody questions, but have never done a job with masquerading and firewalls - so these are my first steps with it. right now I'm understanding only "moon" of about all these things. hope, anybody can help me here !!!! thanks in advance bye hans
