[edit] IP Firewall (for Linux-2.2)

The new firewalling code is accessed via ``IP Firewall Chains. See the IP chanins home page for more information. Among other things, you'll now need to use ipchains instead of ipfwadm to configure your filters. (From Documentation/Changes in the latest kernel sources). We are aware that this is a sorely out of date statement and we are currently working on getting this section more current. You can expect a newer version in August of 1999.
