2 years ago, it was the Potato version of Debian and iptables was *not* included in its since kernel 2.4 was not available... > Any readme's or suggestions? Iptables is available from Woody distro. You just have to install a 2.4 kernel like kernel-image-2.4.18-386 (or boot using bf24). > I've gotten all of the kernel modules compiled into a new kernel that > seem to deal with networking and I've got IPtables working but I've lost > eth1 now and can't get it working... I inserted the correct drivers with > modconf and I'm still getting: unable to locate module eth1 You may check /etc/modules for module loaded at boot and /etc/modutils/* for an alias for eth1. It may be a wrong module loaded for eth1. Each time I upgrade from kernel 2.2 to kernel 2.4, I have to double check the ethernet driver name since some have changed! For example rtl8139 is now renamed as 8139too which made me loose network the first time I did...
