The Debian kernel source for 2.4.x includes some significant changes to the networking code (ie. backporting of IPSEC from 2.6), which conflicts with the IMQ patch. However there is a section headed "Debian patches" on the IMQ site [0], which I imagine will apply cleanly. > I'm also trying to patch iptables and after installing it from source > every time apt-get wants to replace it. Installing packages from source is not recommended unless you use "PREFIX=/usr/local". Once you break apt's synchronicity with the file system, you are opening yourself up to all sort of problems. I suggest building your own custom Debian package [1], which is reasonably simple. Alternatively, I maintain a personal Debian repository [2] which includes an iptables package built with IMQ and Layer 7 support (iptables+imq+l7). Be aware that my packages are built from unstable sources, and will require backporting to run on stable. Adding the deb-src line to your sources.list and running: apt-get update && apt-get source iptables+imq+l7 should get you started.
