Hello!

I don't really know howto specify that kmod
should autoload the ipchains module, when I am
using ipchains.

Anyone any idea howto tell kmod to load it then ?

there is no way to do that.

The problem is, that ipfwadm / ipchains and iptables use the same 
setsockopt() / getsockopt() based communication between kernel and 
userspace - so the kernel can never know which one of the three you want 
to load.
