Hello Folks: First I'd like to show a limitation in my case. The server is at a datacenter, so booting a new kernel is highly improbable, only in a emergency case.
Now the problem. I can't use neither iptables nor brctl. The problem is that the module doesn't exist. Some data: # uname -a Linux loghost1 2.4.27-2-386 #1 Wed Aug 17 09:33:35 UTC 2005 i686 GNU/Linux I've downloaded kernel-source 2.4.27, and copied /boot/config-2.4.27-2.386 into /usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.27/.config First I tried 'make dep', but an error occured. Then I ran 'make menuconfig', made no modifications, and then ran 'make dep, with no errors at all. After this I compiled the modules and installed them (make modules; make modules_install). No erros again. The new modules were saved into /lib/modules/2.4.27, not into /lib/modules/2.4.27-2-386, so the modules couldn't be found. Then I removed /lib/modules/2.4.27-2-386 and renamed /lib/modules/2.4.27 to /lib/modules/2.4.27-2-386 This is what happened then: # modprobe ip_tables /lib/modules/2.4.27/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o: /lib/modules/2.4.27/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o: unresolved symbol proc_net_R2b2fe002 /lib/modules/2.4.27/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o: /lib/modules/2.4.27/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o: unresolved symbol nf_register_sockopt_Rede1b024 /lib/modules/2.4.27/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o: /lib/modules/2.4.27/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o: unresolved symbol remove_proc_entry_R31ed257b /lib/modules/2.4.27/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o: /lib/modules/2.4.27/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o: unresolved symbol nf_unregister_sockopt_Rd3e682dd /lib/modules/2.4.27/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o: /lib/modules/2.4.27/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o: unresolved symbol irq_stat_R57e2f77e /lib/modules/2.4.27/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o: /lib/modules/2.4.27/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o: unresolved symbol create_proc_entry_R648035a2 /lib/modules/2.4.27/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.27/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o failed /lib/modules/2.4.27/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o: insmod ip_tables failed In other words, it didn't work. Can somebody, please, help me. I couldn't go any further then this. Fabio. -- Doses Diárias - Achados de um Programador na Internet http://dosesdiarias.seucaminho.com
