When I try to do anything with iptables, I get this
message:

========
iptables v1.3.7: can't initialize iptables table 'filter':
Table does
not exist (do you need to insmod?)
Perhaps iptable or your kernel needs to be upgraded.
========

I've got netfilter built-in to my non-modular, v2.6.19
kernel.

Ideas?

/proc/net/netfilter exists, if that's worth anything.

I'm using the base masquerading script from BLFS (with some
modifications, but it still doesn't work).

(Note: I posted this to clfs-support a few days ago, but no
one seemed 
to have an answer.)

I'm silly. I put the core netfilter cruft into the kernel,
but I didn't 
put anything else. Fixed.
