Hi -

I have installed the 2.4.18 kernel (from source) and built the same as my
2.4.9-31 RH7.2 stock kernel.

iptables (vs 1.2.4) works OK with my rebuilt 2.4.9.31 Kernel, but fails with
the 2.4.18 Kernel.
(I checked all the options are the same)

iptables-save gives errors and does not output all the rules I have setup,
plus
iptables will not let me update the 'mangle' chain.

I built ALL the netfilter modules directly into the kernel (also tried them
as separate modules.)


Questions:

1. Is there an incompatibility between iptables (user space utils) and
kernel 2.4.18 ??

2. Can someone tell me how to build a new one ? (never came across a bz2
file before !)

My main reason for wanting to upgrade, is to apply the bridge-filter patch.

3. Is there an alternative way of filtering through a bridge ?

Help on any of the above (especially 1&2) would be appreciated !

Thanks,

Simon Cooper.

You most likely have an iptables program which has debugging enabled

redhat mistakenly shipped a debugging version of iptables.
