Actually, iptables works with it built-in to the kernel also.
Ya just have to follow the build. I.e, install the kernel
source,
then install iptables, do a make mrproper, make
xconfig(whatever),
make dep, make bzImage, copy to /boot, edit lilo.conf, run
/sbin/
lilo, make modules, make modules_install, copy over System.map.
If you can't get the above sections, go to
http://linuxnewbie.org
and read. (actually, it's more detailed than that, but I'm a
tad lazy tonight.;)
