None of the advanced routing features (multiple routing tables,
fwmark/tos marking, etc) are turned on in the stock 6.x kernels.
The 2.2.16-22 kernel in rh7.0 does have all this enabled, and I'm
using it on 6.x systems now without any problems. Except that the
kernel-source package doesn't (didn't) compile.
But ipchains will complain if routing isn't enabled before creating
any rules or chains for the main forward chain. You need to do it
with /sbin/sysctl (and /etc/sysctl.conf), or:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
