WL image not including iptables? newer distros?

Can someone please tell me where iptables is on the LinuxAP/WL image? 
Does it get deleted for room during startup or something?

My situation is:
Running the Sept 2003 pre-built image.  I'm trying Station/Router
"mode".  It's doing DHCP on the wired side fine and I can ping and
telnet to the router, but it doesn't look like the ip masq stuff is
working.  I saw in the /etc/rc.d/init.d/iptables.i that it just exists
if iptables is not at /usr/sbin/iptables.  Well, doesn't seem to be
there.  Any thoughts on this are appreciated.

I thought about trying linuxAP-eh, is anyone working with this?

Thanks,
Scott
