I got about 90000 hits on Google when searching for "ipchain tutorial" and "ipchain howto". And so will you.

Ipchains has been obsolete since the release of Linux kernel 2.4 in 2001. Have you really installed a 10-year old Linux distro with kernel 2.2? The current firewall infrastructure in Linux is netfilter/iptables[^]. By "coding my firewall" do you mean coding a front-end for configuring and monitoring the firewall built in the Linux kernel?
