Are the iptables family of kernel modules loaded? Make sure your kernel
configuration has them enabled, either as "y" or "m".

Here's the snipped output of /sbin/lsmod on a 2.6.3-rc1-bk2 RH9 machine:

ipt_REJECT              8576  2
iptable_filter          3968  1
ip_tables              21008  2 ipt_REJECT,iptable_filter
