I have searched the forums and connot find an answer to either of my questions. I will be changing from Slackware 9.1 to Gentoo 1.4 starting later tonight. My computer acts as the firewall/gateway for my small home network.

With slackware I use a script file /etc/rc.d/rc.iptables to povide this funcionality. It is based on a conf file in /etc. My first question is do I place these two files in the same location in Gentoo as in Slackware in order to provide the same functions?

Next, I have a Soundblaster Live sound card. I plan to use alsa for sound. Do I need to emerge emu10k1 along with the alsa?

I will be doing a stage 3 install to start with as my husband would be hard to live with if he has to go for more than a day or so without internet.
