Thank you.  I didn't know about the MANIFEST file.

I have now copied the tcpip2.tgz into linux and run "pkg tcpip2.tgz" to 
install it.  Lots of filenames flew up the screen.  I then rebooted just to 
be sure.
I now have ipchains and ipfwadm in my sbin directory running base.i kernel 
from slackware 7.1. cool!

Problem:
Linux does not seem to SEE the file when I try to run it.  I have checked 
and it is marked executable and in the current directory.  See below.

/sbin<#>ls
badblocks         init              losetup           reset
chroot            insmod            lsmod             rmmod
dhclient          ipchains          mke2fs            route
dhcpcd            ipchains-restore  mkswap            setserial
e2fsck            ipchains-save     mount             swapoff
fdisk             ipfwadm           ping              swapon
halt              ipfwadm-2.3.0     poweroff          umount
httpd             ipfwadm-wrapper   rdev
ifconfig          ldconfig          reboot
/sbin<#>ipchains
-sh: ipchains: not found


I really appreciate you help.  This is my second linux ever (BL1 was my 
first) and I have never needed to install anything previously.
