OK, so I'm really using kernel 2.2.19, but... I have been under the impression that the method of packet filtering/forwarding changed from something called 'ipchains' in 2.2 to something called 'iptables' in 2.4. I see that 'iptables' stuff has been added in various places to my file system, and 'ipchains' stuff seems to have been clobbered. I would like not to become too involved in network admin, but to fix my system I need to rebuild some stuff. How can I determine if I should follow recipes for 'ipchains' or 'iptables' ? ( Or am I truly misinformed? )
