Thanks, as a side note, it seems that iptables>1.3.3 is not working 
correctly with 2.4 kernels and the patch-o-matic addons for 2.4 were 
also removed around the time 1.3.4 was released (I reported this to the 
iptables list, I have gotten only a similar report, but no answer 
from the netfilter developers). It would be good to keep around an 
iptables-1.3.3 stealth patch too (seeing that you updated it to 1.3.5).

Thanks, Peter
