I have a RH 7.2 box that's running iptables and has never had the kernel
recompiled.  Check 'lsmod' and make sure that ipchains is not listed.
If it is then 'rmmod ipchains' then 'insmod ip_tables'  Actually you can
skip that last command and it will load the module for you.

Hope this helps.

On fresh RH7.2 and RH7.3 installs  IPTables executables are installed,
but will not execute.  I get Kernel errors.  Can someone please direct
me to a listing of what steps and option I need to enable this?  I wish
to put firewalling with NAT services on a machine running an Apache web
server, with PHP and Perl scripts connecting to a localhosted MySQL DB,
as well as offering sendmail, POP(S)/IMAP(S), ftp, and PPTP VPN
services.  Or a compatible ipchains script for this would also be
appreciated.

Thanks

maybe ipchains is your problem.....
try to unload ipchains then execute your iptables rules......
