I can't get port 53 open. I suppose this is just part of my problem. I
upgraded from 8.2 to 10.0. I can't get out on the web for starters and
I ran NMAP tonight and 53 isn't open. Shorewall isn't installed. I
have ipchains and iptables, no bind, no named.
I noticed when I boot I see some error about iptables and modprobe and
the kernel, but I don't know exactly what it said. I can't do iptables
-status or whatever. It's version 1.2.9 by the way. I tried listing my
tables and this is what shows up from a command line:
FATAL: Error inserting ip_tables
(/lib/modules/2.6.3-7mdk/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.ko.gz):
Device or resource busy
iptables v1.2.9: can't initialize iptables table `filter': iptables who?
(do you need to insmod?)
Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded.
Do I need to find a newer version of iptables or what? I never had this
problem, but then I never upgraded either. I am thinking this is just
part of what I have to resolve before I get 53 open, unless someone has
a better idea, and if you do I'd appreciate it greatly. This has been
driving me nuts for a week or more.
Thanks,
Greg
Upgraded - so you did an overlay upgrade? I have found that upgrading
isn't the best way to go - if you can do a fresh clean install after
backing up your data, THAT is the best way to go - else (as in the case
of upgrading 9.1 to 10.0) heaps of things just don't work (like sound,
video, certain dev packages, etc)
