Having done a bit more research, I think what I'm interested in is L7.  Now
what I'm trying to figure out is what is needed for L7 userspace on fedora
f8 kernel.

I have kernel-2.6.23.8-63.fc8.x86_64.  According to
http://l7-filter.sourceforge.net/HOWTO-userspace
I need to figure out if fedora f8 kernel has "Layer 3 Dependent Connection
tracking (OBSOLETE)".  Looking
in /lib/modules/2.6.23.8-63.fc8/build/.config I don't see anything that
obviously corresponds to this.

If I just try anyway, it doesn't seem to work:
sudo /sbin/modprobe -v ip_conntrack_netlink
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.23.8-63.fc8/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_nat.ko 
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.23.8-63.fc8/kernel/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_netlink.ko 
[nbecker@nbecker1 l7-filter-userspace-v0.4]$ /usr/bin/l7-filter --help

                      ***WARNING***
The ip_conntrack_netlink module does not appear to be loaded.
Unless you have it compiled into your kernel, please load it
and run l7-filter again.
