Oh I'm really making a mess of it. Last message was not good. Sorry for any confusion. I better write it down what I mean: rm /usr/src/linux mkdir -p /usr/src/linux/include ln -sf ../../../include/asm /usr/src/linux/include/asm ln -sf ../../../include/linux /usr/src/linux/include/linux The directories /usr/src/linux/include/asm and /usr/src/linux/include/linux now are pointing to the original kernelheaders in /usr/include/asm and /usr/include/linux. Compilation of iptables-1.3.1 should go fine now. Why should you uncompress the source of the linuxkernel, if all that you need are the includes which are mentioned above, which are already on your system! The symbolic link solves this. But this sollution is still a dirty one! The configure script (and the makefiles ) of the iptables package cant find the header files somehow. That's where the problem comes from!
