depend on your linux kernel.
2.2 use ipchains, 2.4 use iptables

[ahlek]

then if my kernel is 2.4 then i can use both together?
or if my kernel is 2.2 i can use both together???

In 2.2 kernel, you MUST use ipchains.
In 2.4 kernel, you SHOULD use iptables.
But you CAN use ipchains in 2.4 kernel if you load the module (DON'T SUGGEST).

yes, u r rite, but with caution:

1) in 2.4.x kernel, you run either ipchain or iptables at a single given time, as a module.
2) such ip_masq_*.o modules, which used by ipchains, are not available in 2.4.x kernel.
