iptables failed. The error was: Applying iptables firewall rules: iptables-restore v1.3.4: Unknown arg `--icmp-type' Error occurred at line: 11 Try `iptables-restore -h' or 'iptables-restore --help' for more information. [FAILED]
I tried various things to determine which file line 11 is in error with with the ftp install from November 19th. I did not find out where the error was located. I then ran a clean installed with the downloaded FC5T1 (Nov 21) discs f and ended up with the same problem with line 11.
This error happened with all but telnet allowed and also with all options unchecked. (ftp,ssh, ...)
I installed firestarter after seeing this error with both installs. firestarter showed the below.

Thanks!
I'll sit back on the iptables until the fixed rpm is pushed into rawhide. Since this failure woke me up to how much I don't know about how this program works (normally), I have some research ro do in the meantime.
