Anne, Mikkel,
Does man iptables work from command-line?
Hi, Rick. I have no problem accessing it from the command line. It's just
for eye comfort that I wanted to do it in konqueror. At a pinch I could read
it in a root console, which would certainly be easier than in a user console,
but I don't like to do unnecessary things as root. Perhaps I got the command
wrong in konqueror?

The path searched for man pages is not the same as the one searched for
programs. You do not have to be root to read the man pages for commands
that are normally restricted to root. The default man path is controlled
by a config file in /etc. But if the man command works right from the
command line, then that is not the problem here.
