Hi,

Is iptables still needed for kernel 2.6.x? I see a lot of iptables 
patches go into the kernel, but not much updates on the 
www.netfilter.org. The logo on netfilter says firewalling, NAT and 
packet mangling for Linux 2.4. So I guess much of the code goes directly 
into the kernel? Also does kernel 2.6.3 support Netmeeting and MSN 
Instant Messengener, or I need the following plug-in,
