I emerged firestarter (during which I got iptables), and forgot that I |
2 |
didn't have iptables emerged prior. I went into the kernel and selected (as |
3 |
the doc I found suggests) all of the options as modules under iptables. (The |
4 |
doc also says that if they are compiled as modules, I didn't need to |
5 |
reboot). |
6 |
I did add iptables to /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 (for subsequent |
7 |
rebooting). |

modprobe ip_tables results in: |
10 |
FATAL: Error inserting ip_tables |
11 |
(/lib/modules/2.6.12-gentoo-r9/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.ko): |
12 |
Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter. |
13 |
|
14 |
dmesg produces - |
15 |
ip_tables: disagrees about version of symbol skb_copy_files |
16 |
ip_tables: Unknow symbol skb_copy_bits |
17 |
ip_tables: Unknown symbol nf_register_sockopt |
18 |
ip_tables: ip_tables: Unknown symbol nf_unregister_sockopt |
19 |
ip_tables: Unknown symbol nf_unregister_sockopt |

(I just found another doc that says to ONLY modprobe IF you haven't built |
22 |
this as a module) |
23 |
DOH! |
24 |
|
25 |
I went back into the kernel config and removed all but the essential options |
26 |
for iptables... (just iptables module) and rebuilt the kernel |
27 |
|
28 |
A reboot (aside from losing my wireless), produced an error on boot loading |
29 |
iptables. |
30 |
no other text in dmesg points to the problem. |
