Thanks. Maybe you could stress it a bit more that one has to patch and recompile his kernel to be able to use certain matches or targets. I read the README.Debian and just thought ok, I got a packet filtering enabled kernel, now why doesn't it work. Maybe you could also include some information where to get the patches and how to patch the kernel. I just used the ones available via apt-source iptables.
