I'm not even sure where to look. ip_conntrack_netbios_ns and
ip_conntrack_amanda load fine. The only files with similar names I can
find are
/lib/modules/<version>/kernel/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_netbios_ns.ko
and /lib/modules/<version>/kernel/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_amanda.ko,
but there is
a /lib/modules/<version>/kernel/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_sane.ko. So
if those files are related to those modules, the answer should be yes.
If not, then I really don't understand how the iptables modules thing
works at all.

I could also just take down the firewall (or open all unprivileged
ports), but I was hoping not to have to do anything that drastic.

Thanks.
