Public bug reported: Ubuntu 10.10 64 bits
basically what i want to do is: # iptables -A FORWARD -m geoip --src-cc A1,A2 -j DROP but i run into 2 issues with this: 1) the tools are missing for downloading and converting (geoip_csv_iv0.pl) the databases, and the link (http://jengelh.hopto.org/files/geoip/) named in the docu doesn't work, basically the tools are damn nasty to find. 2) when i managed 1) it still doesn't work, and i get a: # iptables -A FORWARD -m geoip --src-cc A1,A2 -j DROP iptables: No chain/target/match by that name. what i expect: 1) tools are included with xtables-addons (geoip_download.sh and geoip_csv_iv0.pl) or docu point to a link which contains those tools 2) this should just work perhaps after insmodding an ipt_geoip (and having the database files) about 2): I think there is no kernel (match) support: #cat /proc/net/ip_tables_matches state multiport udplite udp tcp icmp where geoip is missing in /lib/modules is no ipt_geoip, or something which looks like it. At the xtables support page ubuntu is listed in red (like many other distro's): http://xtables-addons.sourceforge.net/distro-support.php Of course i can start the custom kernel/patching etc etc, but this is not what i seek (for long term). Please consider of fixing this.
