Yes, I have a firewall box (kb9mci.net, please resist the urge to look at it, as it is only on a 256 k connection) running RH 7.1 with a 2.2.20 kernel on it. All I did was get the source from kernel.org, unpack it, compile, install and reboot. Works great, I am able to use all my ipchains rule set, without learning iptables, and the icq mod works right. - -- Bryan Fields, KB9MCI ____________________ Alea iacta est.
