iptables: No chain/target/match by that name

[LeHardi]

Hi!
I got these error (iptables: No chain/target/match by that name) trying apply guarddog changes. I've read some docs and:
1) compiled all iptables options into the kernel

And there is set of my iptables rules. Script was generated from [http://easyfwgen.morizot.net/gen/
Maybe it can help...

Post the full output from running this script. That will help us narrow down the offending line(s).

The trick at this point is to figure out which $IPT line is the problem. I don't see any obvious patterns. Here are my ideas, the last one is the best. Try it first.

1. Try uncommenting all of the "# /sbin/modprobe <modules>" lines at the top of the script. Maybe one isn't being autoloaded.

2. I ran this script on a machine I have iptables compiled into the kernel and it ran without problems. If you have the option to re-compile with iptables compiled into the kernel, that might help too. BTW, which kernel are you running??

3. Edit your script; let's make it so that we can see which line causes the error. Find the line which reads
