When i find out what i am doing wrong , i am probably gonna smack myself over the head, but i am stuck here.

I installed Debian etch.... updated all... no worries
Configured all i needed.... no worries there....
Then installed my firewall script... now here the shit hit the fan....
On my webserver rules i use the --limit and --limit-burst options, but iptables does not recognize these commands. its because ipt_limit module is not loaded.

now how do i load this module ?
