ipchains, iptables, and 2.4.18

[Andrew Perrin <clists@perrin.socsci.unc.edu>]

I'd like to upgrade my home machine's kernel to 2.4.18, but I'm not too
excited about moving from ipchains to iptables. (This machine acts as a
router from the home network [on eth0] and our DSL service [eth1].)  So, a
few questions:

- How easy or hard is it to migrate an ipchains ruleset to iptables?
- Is it possible/adviseable to use ipchains under 2.4.18?
- What documentation should I read?

Thanks.
