[Cooker] kernel 2.4 ipchains (not iptables)

[Pelon]

This question may be better served on a kernel
list or masquerading list but my problems began
with the upgrade to MDK7.1 and have not been
solved with cooker.

With kernel 2.4.0-test4,5,6,... and MDK 7.0 I
ran iptables without a hitch. Something broke
with MDK 7.1 and I had to revert to ipchains. It
works fine as long as I don't need
ftp,irc,realplayer (all the services provided by
modules in the 2.2 kernel). But these modules are
not provided with the new kernel as ipchains are
to deprecated.

I'm hoping someone can help me repair iptables or
help me find modules to complement ipchains.
