Be sure ipchains is the only module you are loading. rmmod any iptables items before modprobe of ipchains. If you are running redhat, also do not believe the script in /etc/rc.d/init.d/ipchains as to whether or not ipchains is actually running, it is broken (does not check return values), and lies and does not tell you when ipchains startup fails (as root manually do something like ipchains -L -n).
