Check out the http://www.ipfilter.org web site. Instructions are provided there. --Skip

and many rules (if not too complicated) work for iptables and ipchains they tend to change syntax for a few things, like specifying port (iptables you have to do --dport 80 while with ipchains you can just do -d 0/0 80) -mike ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bryan Scaringe" <scaringe@nycap.rr.com> To: <wlug@mail.wlug.org> Sent: Thursday, September 26, 2002 03:34 Subject: Re: [Wlug] ipchains: Incompatible with this kernel

ipchains is for kernels in the 2.2 series. iptables is for kernels in the 2.4 series.

However, I believe there's an option in the kernel configuration so that you can continue to use ipchains commands with the 2.4 kernels. I'd suggest going with this option until you get a chance to update your firewall rules to iptables, (which I'd really suggest you do since iptables has some options that aren't available in ipchains).
