The next release of IPFilter (4.1.1) will have it mostly working
on Linux 2.4 kernels.  The problems that remain have to do with
inadequacies in the Linux kernel API for support of features that
are not part of people's core use.  As of 4.1, it was doing all
the simple stuff (block/pass/log.)

I imagine that my work here will make it easier for others to
do a copy to support their own projects...

ipf is found in the current server version of OS-X, but ipfw is
used on the workstation.  Go figure :)
