I use iptables in my knoppix particion I have a tiny srcript that permits me to share mi connection with a laptop and a pc (and mine of course),and no more need...and everybody is happy at home...
When I tried to use it on dsl it said that iptables are not installed..The fact is: must I install Iptables only? (apt-get install iptables) or must I also put them on dsl's kernel? If so I must recompile kernel   By the way: which kernel dsl 0.6.2 has?
Tks

Since DSL is derived from a version of Knoppix (3.3?), you should be able to install packages that worked with the Knoppix kernel. Version = 2.4.22-xfs

Yes I did it! I just apt-get install iptables and my humble iptables-firewall works again!
TKS!
