I'm very interested in this thread. I've been trying to setup ipchains (on RH6.2) but
for some reason they only 'stick' for a few minutes then disappear. Probably
something in Rackspace's networking, as my ethernet interfaces were doing
the same a while back.
Is it possible to use a 2.4.x kernel with RH 6.2? I suppose "anything is possible",
but will this break so much that it's not worth while? I really need one or the other
for the sake of Apache's logging with referrers.
