Ah, so the bridge module shipping with rh kernel dont have support for iptables, that explains it all :D and it was very stupid of me to think that the one thing that at least I would like to use with the bridge must be patched in :D Shouldnt be a problem to build the kernel myself, last time it went very smoothly!
