Iptables is now the default, but it looks like ipchains is still included. You would need to install the ipchains RPM and turn off or uninstall iptables--only one or the other can run at a time. And don't count on the Red Hat firewall config tools to help out any more. Note that iptables is generally a much more powerful and flexible protocol (and the wave of the future), so converting would not be a waste of time. > > On Wed, 17 Sep 2003, Reuben D.
