19 If you run "dmesg | grep filter" do you see:
20
21 ip_tables: (C) 2000-2002 Netfilter core team
22
23 ???
24
25 Can we assume you did "make modules_install" when building the current
26 kernel?
27
28 Did you run "emerge iptables" (Im assuming yes) ?
29
30 Do you have any IP tables modules too? ("grep IP_NF_
31 /usr/src/linx/.config" should tell you).
