[olug] security and firewall/gateway

Redhat 7.0 did not use the 2.4 kernel.
Is iptables not part of 2.4 only.
Redhat 7.1 includes the 2.4 kernel default but does not have iptables loaded
in.
It does support ipchains.
I will post how to do this when I get it working.
Unless someone else knows the answer and would like to post a reply.
