I think the module is actually called ip_tables. The ip_tables module keeps
a table of packet filtering rules inmemory. The table is manipulated via the
iptables program.
Saying either 'modinfo ip_tables' or 'modprobe ip_tables' should work. If
not, the module did not get compiled.
[I like to use 'ye' when talking about 'you in general'.]
