This is true only if you install firewalling... I suggest saying no at this
point in the install...

IPTables has GREAT advantages over IPChains....
A suggestion for those who are using 7.1 Get the 2.4.5 kernel source from
kernel.org, and then go to netfilter.samba.org and get the latest netfilter
(iptables) sources. I actually got the CVS, as there is a newer patch in
there... recompile your kernel, enabling iptables in the kernel, and not as a
loadable module. Then you will have iptables available as soon as the kernel
loads, and will eliminate errors. In addition, this kernel is really fast!
