If not, run lsmod to list all the installed modules and then rmmod each module related to iptables (I'm sure there's a better way to do this).
You can still use ipchains with 2.4 kernels, you just have to remove all the iptables modules, modprobe ipchains, and have the ipchains package installed. Since 2.4 uses iptables by default I probably should have given you iptables rules, but I had "rusty's three line guide to ip masquerade" handy so I gave you that. > So, I'll zero out the installation, and try to avoid some mistakes I > made along the way, leaving me with a (more) known and (hopefully) > better understood baseline to work against.
