Try to install iptables from your distribution disks. I do not have mine 
available right now, otherwise I could take a look. I am pretty sure 
that when you install iptables all the modules needed are installed. I 
checked-boxed iptables when I installed Linux (SuSE 8.3) and I don't 
believe any rebuild of the kernel is needed. If you have a 2.4 kernel 
available it should be iptables enabled.
