I added all kernel options under netfilter (excluding ipchains and experimental stuff) as modules. The iptables in Portage wouldn't compile on my hardware so I downloaded the latest available from the iptables website, compiled and installed that successfully. Then used turtlefirewall to configure my firewall rules. Cheers! Chris -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
