./configure \

--prefix=/usr \ --libexecdir=/lib \ --bindir=/sbin \ --mandir=/usr/share/man --with-kernel=/usr

make

make install

install -v -m644 iptables.xslt /lib/iptables

Modified milestone from 6.4 to 6.5

[Guy Dalziel]

We have iptables 1.4.4 in the books for 6.5, so any issues with 1.3.8 should be covered by upgrading to the new version. Thank you for the report.
