----
ipchains for 2.4 version kernels, iptables for 2.6 kernels

# rpm -q iptables
iptables-1.3.5-4.el5

# rpm -ql iptables|grep man
/usr/share/man/man8/iptables-restore.8.gz
/usr/share/man/man8/iptables-save.8.gz
/usr/share/man/man8/iptables.8.gz

seems as though you need to install iptables package
