Now what I'm trying to figure out is what is needed for L7 userspace on fedora f8 kernel. I have kernel-2.6.23.8-63.fc8.x86_64. According to http://l7-filter.sourceforge.net/HOWTO-userspace I need to figure out if fedora f8 kernel has "Layer 3 Dependent Connection tracking (OBSOLETE)". Looking in /lib/modules/2.6.23.8-63.fc8/build/.config I don't see anything that obviously corresponds to this. If I just try anyway, it doesn't seem to work: sudo /sbin/modprobe -v ip_conntrack_netlink insmod /lib/modules/2.6.23.8-63.fc8/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_nat.ko insmod /lib/modules/2.6.23.8-63.fc8/kernel/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_netlink.ko [nbecker@nbecker1 l7-filter-userspace-v0.4]$ /usr/bin/l7-filter --help ***WARNING*** The ip_conntrack_netlink module does not appear to be loaded. Unless you have it compiled into your kernel, please load it and run l7-filter again. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
