I wish to use ipchains. In setup what should i have selected to start at boot 
up. I had 1 machine that ipchains did work on. By going into setup and 
turning on and off iptables and ipchains i now "broke" the one that worked.
However the ONLY thing that was changed was the * next to ipchains or tables.
Ive tried several ways chains on tables off etc etc.. no matter what, its now 
broke.
Some things these machines do now. with ipchains and tables off in setup and 
after a reboot...:

[root@ns1 root]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/ipchains start
[root@ns1 root]#
[root@ns1 root]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/ipchains stop 
[root@ns1 root]#
[root@ns1 root]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/iptables start
[root@ns1 root]#
Resetting built-in chains to the default ACCEPT policy:    [  OK  ]
[root@ns1 root]#

with ipchains in setup turned on and after a reboot: (diff machine but same 
setup etc..i didnt want to reboot my production machine, thus the diff 
between ns1 and backup)

[root@backup root]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/ipchains start
[root@backup root]#

[root@backup root]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/ipchains stop 
Flushing all chains: ipchains: Incompatible with this kernel
                                                           [FAILED]
Removing user defined chains: ipchains: Incompatible with this kernel
                                                           [FAILED]
Resetting built-in chains to the default ACCEPT policy:ipchains: Protocol not 
available
                                                           [FAILED]
[root@backup root]#

after turning on both chains and tables in setup and a reboot it acts the 
same as above..

PS* /etc/rc.d/init.d/ipchains start/stop etc is same as going into setup 
turning them on/off and rebooting correct? I thought i may have seen this is 
not true, not sure...just wondering...
