In trying to set up iptables I get the following messages. Can someone please tell me what I have to do to correct it. Please don't tell me that I have to compile the kernel (unless you have to ;])
I have been trying to get a working copy of Debian Linux up for over a week. I have had everything working except ipchains in 2.2 and now iptables in 2.4. I can't get on the web to upgrade until I get these working, even though I can connetc to the net. deb:/# iptables -L -v Note: /etc/modules.conf is more recent than /lib/modules/2.4.18-bf2.4/modules.dep deb:/# uname -a Linux deb 2.4.18-bf2.4 #1 Son Apr 14 09:53:28 CEST 2002 i586 unknown deb:/# modprobe ip_tables Note: /etc/modules.conf is more recent than /lib/modules/2.4.18-bf2.4/modules.dep /lib/modules/2.4.18-bf2.4/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o: init_module: Device or resource busy Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters /lib/modules/2.4.18-bf2.4/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.18-bf2.4/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o failed /lib/modules/2.4.18-bf2.4/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o: insmod ip_tables failed deb:/# iptables -L Note: /etc/modules.conf is more recent than /lib/modules/2.4.18-bf2.4/modules.dep /lib/modules/2.4.18-bf2.4/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o: init_module: Device or resource busy Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters /lib/modules/2.4.18-bf2.4/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.18-bf2.4/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o failed /lib/modules/2.4.18-bf2.4/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o: insmod ip_tables failed iptables v1.2.6a: can't initialize iptables table `filter': iptables who? (do you need to insmod?) Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded. I guess what I need is an answer to that last question Linux is asking. Thanks in advance...I appreciate any and all help... Phil. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
