	yeah. i think i had a brain freeze when i wrote this. i tried
	modprobe ipchains and a number of errors came out:

/lib/modules/2.4.1/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ipchains.o: unresolved symbol
nf_unregister_hook
/lib/modules/2.4.1/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ipchains.o: unresolved symbol
nf_unregister_sockopt
/lib/modules/2.4.1/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ipchains.o: unresolved symbol
nf_register_hook
/lib/modules/2.4.1/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ipchains.o: unresolved symbol
nf_register_sockopt
/lib/modules/2.4.1/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ipchains.o: insmod
/lib/modules/2.4.1/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ipchains.o failed
/lib/modules/2.4.1/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ipchains.o: insmod ipchains
failed

	i didnt know if this was a failed dependencay on another kernel
	module that first needed to be loaded or what.


	and on a related note. i have ipchains run upon boot.
	what is the "proper" way to load the ipchains module in an
	init script on boot? does the kernel automatically load
	the module?

	thanks!
