does anyone know of any firewalls that use iptables and thus are compatible with kernel 2.4? or i guess i howto that makes it very simple to make one yourself?

The Netfilter (http://netfilter.kernelnotes.org/) homepage has some pretty good docs on it

I think Firestarter can do it. It might need some tinkering though because I've had some trouble with the script it generated. I am going to take the time to fix at some point but I'm busy with other stuff (2.4 crashes in about 8 hours of use, I know it's my chipset (Ali) but I'm kinda busy)

http://www.linux-firewall-tools.com/ can generate an iptables firewall script for you based on parameters you specify. You might want to just use it as a template, though: I've always had various problems just taking a firewall from there and trying to run with it. Sanity-check it, cut out what you don't like, and add whatever else you need.

Firestarter says it can do it, though I haven't tried it yet. You can always select to add 2.2 support though.
