The bridge-nf kernel patch (available at http://bridge.sourceforge.net/)
is an additional kernel patch to the already present bridging patch, for
use with the bridge-utils package. It enables interoperability between
the bridging elements of the kernel and the netfilters firewall
elements, allowing the creation of a transparent firewall. Currently
all packets forwarded by the bridge bypass the netfilters firewall, this
patch corrects the problem. As far as I'm aware the patch applies to
the 2.4.19 woody kernel soure without problem.
