hi, one of my machines at home is running RH72 , 2.4.9-31 (upgraded from up2date) and since i upgraded i am having problems forwarding traffic through that machine using iptables. the iptables version that comes with RH originally is iptables-1.2.3-1, and i figured that an upgrade is in order here so i removed the old packages and installed iptables-1.2.4-2 using up2date. this is the same error i am getting before and after the update :
# /sbin/iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE /lib/modules/2.4.9-31/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o: init_module: Device or resource busy Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters /lib/modules/2.4.9-31/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.9-31/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o failed /lib/modules/2.4.9-31/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o: insmod ip_tables failed iptables v1.2.4: can't initialize iptables table `nat': iptables who? (do you need to insmod?) Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded. insmod produces the following : # insmod ip_tables Using /lib/modules/2.4.9-31/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o /lib/modules/2.4.9-31/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o: init_module: Device or resource busy Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters idea's anyone ? _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
