Why does Redhat continue to use ipchains with the 2.4 kernels? Shouldn't they be using iptables now?

I've recently installed RH 7.2 and I was impressed to see that only one port is open compared to the twelve open ports of a default Windows 2000 installation. During the install I specified only medium firewall rules while selecting web and ftp ports to be open. However, those ports are not open. I've installed Apache to begin with but I can't reach it from outside the machine. What config file(s) do I need to edit to open those ports? Thanks in advance. David Cross
