Hi Phil,

On further testing it looks like this is specific to something about the
older Ubuntu 10.04 system (with iptables 1.4.4) I was putting it on. On
12.04 there's no such problem. Since 10.04 is going out of support the end
of next month anyway, probably not something worth worrying about. I have
FireHOL on a variety of systems, but this may be the only time I've put it
on 10.04.

Best,

Whit
