Thanks Phil for y0u input. Your are right it's well documented that ip_filter sources are incomnpatible with later linux distributions and I think I said that.
Now that we have the rant out of the way, I would like to say that I cannot believe that ip_filter cannot be ported to later Linux revisions. I do know that trying to do so is a MAJOR task 'cause I'm attempting to do it. So anyone willing to assist I would like to hear from them off-list.
