[TriLUG] mandrake 10.0 upgrade not autoloading modules

I recently upgraded a machine from Mandrake 9.2 to 10.0 with 2.6.3 kernel. It
now seems to not be auto-loading kernel modules, specifically those for
iptables. The machine starts iptables as a service, and I run a set of rules
with iptables, but it complains until I load the correct ones. So, I added
this to /etc/modprobe.preload
------------
ip_tables
iptable_filter
ip_conntrack
af_packet
iptable_nat
ipt_MASQUERADE
-----------------
But, it still doesn't load those last two modules, and it complains when I try
to run nat until I load them manually. Any thoughts?
Here's the first entry in lilo.conf:
------------------
boot=/dev/hda
map=/boot/map
vga=normal
default="linux"
prompt
nowarn
timeout=50
message=/boot/message
menu-scheme=wb:bw:wb:bw
image=/boot/vmlinuz
label="linux"
root=/dev/hda3
initrd=/boot/initrd.img
append="devfs=mount acpi=ht splash=silent"
vga=788
read-only
-------------------------
[root at manager etc]# uname -a
Linux manager 2.6.3-9mdk #1 Fri Apr 23 16:41:09 EDT 2004 i686 unknown unknown
GNU/Linux
-----------------------
Thanks!
