NoCatAuth will respond with the same error if you try to run it on a 
kernel other than 2.4.

/NoCatAuth-0.82/bin/detect-fw.sh
     10 # Do we have iptables *and* are running Linux 2.4?
     11 #
     12 elif which iptables >/dev/null 2>&1 && \
     13   test X"`uname -sr | cut -d. -f-2`" = X"Linux 2.4"; then
     14     FIREWALL=iptables
     15     FW_BIN=iptables

I changed "Linux 2.4" to "Linux 2.6" for my FC2 testbox.  I haven't run 
NoCatSplash, but would imagine that the troublesome logic still applies.
