Lacking support for icmp : "--icmp-type"

Hi list

I'am having some troubles getting iptables working with icmp support. The following:

---
root@fw  ~# iptables -N AllowICMPs
root@fw ~# iptables -A AllowICMPs -p icmp --icmp-type fragmentation- needed -j ACCEPT
---

Results in:

---
root@fw ~# iptables -N AllowICMPs
root@fw ~# iptables -A AllowICMPs -p icmp --icmp-type fragmentation- needed -j ACCEPT
iptables v1.3.2: Unknown arg `--icmp-type'
Try `iptables -h' or 'iptables --help' for more information.

Iptables are running on the Trustix 3.0 distribution using Shorewall firewall. I've tried compiling iptables from source and using the rpm from Trustix. RPM is version 1.3.1 of iptables and source is latest - 1.3.2. The kernel is 2.6.12 from Trustix.

I've been trying both Shorewall mailinglist and Trustix mailinglist but no success yet :(. It seems like there is no support for icmp in iptables.

---
iptables -p icmp --help
---

Gives no indication of icmp support. libipt_icmp.so is installed on the system though.

Any hints? Thanks.

Best regards
