please note that with iptables, there are 2 modules for each "extra module" - a shared library, to handle the user-space part (recognizing command line options and preparing rules to inject into the kernel), and a kernel module, to handle the actual filtering. it is possible that you have the user-space shared library (what you saw under /lib/iptables/...), but you lack the matching kernel module. -- guy "For world domination - press 1, or dial 0, and please hold, for the creator." -- nob o. dy ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
