iptables in potato



    Hey people. 

    So, I have a potato firewall currently running 2.2.12 and using an
ipchains firewall script. I just built a 2.4.17 kernel for it. I want to use
the stable Debian release for that particular box, but the iptables tool does
not appear to be available in potato (according to an apt-cache search). So, 

1. If I use my existing ipchains firewall script with 2.4, I've heard that it
will in fact work, of course not making use of any of the cool netfilter
features. Is this accurate?

2. Is it possible to get a copy of iptables for potato?

    Many thanks,

    Mike
