## DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the **gfcc** command. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

If you use Linux kernel 2.4 you should take care that the ipchains compatability is activated and that the concerning module is loaded (modprobe ipchains).
