[NOTE: I've apparently been sending to nacatnet instead fo nocat. For those
of you who have seen this message already, my apologies.]

I've identified a problem with several (all?) of the ipkged NoCatSplashes
for OpenWRT White Russian RC3. On a WRT54GS v1.0, in every case, splashd -D
yields:

'iptables: no target/chain/match by that name'

upon loading. This is apparently caused by the fact that the 'ipt_REDIRECT'
module is not loading.

To fix the issue, vim on into initialize.fw, and change line 32:

FROM:
for module in ipt_TOS ipt_mac; do

TO:
for module in ipt_REDIRECT ipt_TOS ipt_mac; do

And Voe Illa! NoCatSplash!

[I'm using Schuyler Erle's ipkg, available at

Thanks for such a great tool, guys,

Chris
