I have two RH9 systems - with a different system history. As I tried to 
set up firewalls I saw that one system is running with ipchains and the 
other one with iptables. I'd like to have both ones on iptables. But 
when I try to run (on the system with ipchains) iptables --list I get a 
bunch of nasty error messages like:
    

   IIRC, you can't load iptables while the ipchains module is loaded.
I thought that the error message said something to this effect, but
it's been a while since I used ipchains.  Try this:
# /sbin/service ipchains stop
# /sbin/rmmod ipchains

   Then try loading/running iptables.  You might have modules other
than just ipchains to clear away.  You'll probably also want to do
this:
# /sbin/chkconfig ipchains off
# /sbin/chkconfig iptables on

   Personally, I usually "rpm -e ipchains" since I never have a need
for it.  If you're really stuck, remove the ipchains RPM and reboot.
That will definately clear out the offending modules, and should
prevent them from being reloaded.
