Thats a bummer it won't co-exist.  For those of you out there that haven't
heard, the new IPTABLES subsystem will even take old IPFWADM commands
too!

>2.5.x reportedly will drop ipchains support.

Ahhhh.. ok.


>I'm still trying to get my brain properly wrapped around the new interface.

So what do think people, should the IP Masq HOWTO be extended to support 
IPTABLES or should we start a whole new HOWTO?  The reason why I'm concerned 
about this is because IPTABLES might have a complete different behavior 
(quirks, etc) and the old MASQ module support might be very different.

Thoughts?
