Question about how to load ipchains with RH-7.1.

["Steven W. Orr" <steveo world std com>]

I just upgraded to the new 2.4.5 kernel and I built it with ipchains so I
could continue using my pmfirewall. After the boot, the firewall had
failed to start because the ipchains module wasn't loaded.

1. How can I make the ipchains module load on demand?
2. If I can't cause it to load on demand, where should I do the load so
that it happens before the start of pmfirewall?

TIA
