More questions than answers, unfortunately. Why 2.4.7-10? You don't mention what release you are running, but for Red Hat 7.1/7.2 , the current kernel is at kernel-2.4.9-34. Why are you recompiling? Iptables support is built into the stock kernel. Just turn of ipchains, if it is running, remove the modules, if loaded, and you should be able to load the iptables modules. As for the errors, what did you begin with for a .config file? You can use the ones in /usr/src/linux-2.4/configs/ as a start. They are the ones used by Red Hat to build the stock kernels. Just choose the one for your arch, and copy it to /usr/src/linux-2.4/.config. - -- - -Michael pgp key: http://www.tuxfan.homeip.net:8080/gpgkey.txt Red Hat Linux 7.2 in 8M of RAM: http://www.rule-project.org/ - -- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iEYEARECAAYFAj08wosACgkQn/07WoAb/SslTwCgi2bFkK9EC2l9DyfFXG50FVFn p14AnAiGAFJtA28O0oupLz6Zd7m2L+1f =V0Zr -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
