there really aren't any significant differences in their functionality at this
stage. however there are some interesting netfilter modules starting to
appear. if you are familiar with one over the other, go ahead with that one,
or if you dont have any/many machines on which ipfilter runs, it might make
more sense to keep things consistent and go with netfilter, or the other way
around.
