Hi,

What is the main difference betweem ipchains and iptables? I have done 
some user space level programming with libipq on redhat unix, and now I 
have to port that software to another linux system (prorpitory) that has 
only ipchains on it. Will it work simply, or does libipq library works 
only for iptables?
