I'm using iptables and have no problems. I have everything I need compiled into the kernel, though. My config is below (but is from a 2.6 kernel so some options might not be availble). If this doesn't help, can you post the networking section of your /usr/src/linux/.config? # # Networking options # CONFIG_PACKET=y CONFIG_PACKET_MMAP=y # CONFIG_NETLINK_DEV is not set CONFIG_UNIX=y # CONFIG_NET_KEY is not set CONFIG_INET=y # CONFIG_IP_MULTICAST is not set # CONFIG_IP_ADVANCED_ROUTER is not set # CONFIG_IP_PNP is not set # CONFIG_NET_IPIP is not set # CONFIG_NET_IPGRE is not set # CONFIG_ARPD is not set # CONFIG_INET_ECN is not set # CONFIG_SYN_COOKIES is not set # CONFIG_INET_AH is not set # CONFIG_INET_ESP is not set # CONFIG_INET_IPCOMP is not set # # IP: Virtual Server Configuration # # CONFIG_IP_VS is not set # CONFIG_IPV6 is not set # CONFIG_DECNET is not set # CONFIG_BRIDGE is not set CONFIG_NETFILTER=y # CONFIG_NETFILTER_DEBUG is not set # # IP: Netfilter Configuration # CONFIG_IP_NF_CONNTRACK=y CONFIG_IP_NF_FTP=y CONFIG_IP_NF_IRC=y CONFIG_IP_NF_TFTP=y CONFIG_IP_NF_AMANDA=y # CONFIG_IP_NF_QUEUE is not set CONFIG_IP_NF_IPTABLES=y # CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_LIMIT is not set # CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_MAC is not set # CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_PKTTYPE is not set # CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_MARK is not set # CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_MULTIPORT is not set # CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_TOS is not set # CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_RECENT is not set # CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_ECN is not set # CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_DSCP is not set # CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_AH_ESP is not set # CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_LENGTH is not set # CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_TTL is not set # CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_TCPMSS is not set # CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_HELPER is not set # CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_STATE is not set # CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_CONNTRACK is not set # CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_UNCLEAN is not set CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_OWNER=y # CONFIG_IP_NF_FILTER is not set CONFIG_IP_NF_NAT=y CONFIG_IP_NF_NAT_NEEDED=y CONFIG_IP_NF_TARGET_MASQUERADE=y CONFIG_IP_NF_TARGET_REDIRECT=y CONFIG_IP_NF_NAT_LOCAL=y # CONFIG_IP_NF_NAT_SNMP_BASIC is not set CONFIG_IP_NF_NAT_IRC=y CONFIG_IP_NF_NAT_FTP=y CONFIG_IP_NF_NAT_TFTP=y CONFIG_IP_NF_NAT_AMANDA=y # CONFIG_IP_NF_MANGLE is not set # CONFIG_IP_NF_TARGET_LOG is not set # CONFIG_IP_NF_TARGET_ULOG is not set # CONFIG_IP_NF_TARGET_TCPMSS is not set # CONFIG_IP_NF_ARPTABLES is not set # # SCTP Configuration (EXPERIMENTAL) # CONFIG_IPV6_SCTP__=y # CONFIG_IP_SCTP is not set # CONFIG_ATM is not set # CONFIG_VLAN_8021Q is not set # CONFIG_LLC is not set # CONFIG_X25 is not set # CONFIG_LAPB is not set # CONFIG_NET_DIVERT is not set # CONFIG_ECONET is not set # CONFIG_WAN_ROUTER is not set # CONFIG_NET_FASTROUTE is not set # CONFIG_NET_HW_FLOWCONTROL is not set # # QoS and/or fair queueing # # CONFIG_NET_SCHED is not set # # Network testing # # CONFIG_NET_PKTGEN is not set CONFIG_NETDEVICES=y > However, modprobe ip_tables gives the errors "unresolved symbol > nf_register_sockopt" and "unresolved symbol nf_unregister_sockopt". This has been brought up many times - though a definate solution has never been found. Search the mailing list and forums for "modules unresolved symbol". I'd say to try using the -F option with depmod and if it still doesn't work, try insmod'ing individual seeminly relevant modules from /lib/modules until it does work.
