Thanks for the suggestion.  I am running woody with a 2.4.16
kernel, so the iptables works fine.

I did figure out the problem though.  It turned out that I was
referencing target chains that had not yet been created.  I had
three different ones.  

It's interesting that iptables correllated the targets to a
/lib/iptables/libipt_<target>.so file.  Each of the three targets
were handled this way.  As soon as I moved the target chain
creations to a point in the script prior to their reference, the
chains and rules loaded fine.
