I am experiencing some module loading weirdness with the 2.6.21.x series kernels [Fedora/rawhide] that I do not see with the 2.x.(19|20).x kernels in FC6. FC6 ---- * reboot the system * login /start the desktop * launch Mac-On-Linux ==> all is well... Mac-On-Linux is a Linux/PPC program that virtualizes MacOS or MacOSX in Linux. MOL uses an IP tunnel to establish communications between the Linux host and the virtualized MAC operating system. When MOL is launched the following kernel modules are loaded: Module Size Used by xt_tcpudp 3424 2 ipt_MASQUERADE 4096 1 iptable_nat 8388 1 nf_nat 20500 2 ipt_MASQUERADE,iptable_nat nf_conntrack_ipv4 13448 2 iptable_nat nf_conntrack 72968 4 ipt_MASQUERADE,iptable_nat,nf_nat,nf_conntrack_ipv4 nfnetlink 8344 3 nf_nat,nf_conntrack_ipv4,nf_conntrack ip_tables 14900 1 iptable_nat x_tables 18372 4 xt_tcpudp,ipt_MASQUERADE,iptable_nat,ip_tables tun 13728 1 mol 59304 1 Fedora/Rawhide -------------- * reboot the system * login /start the desktop * launch Mac-On-Linux ==> networking is borked. An examination of the output from 'lsmod' shows some modules did not load: Module Size Used by nf_nat 20660 0 nf_conntrack_ipv4 13448 1 nf_conntrack 73408 2 nf_nat,nf_conntrack_ipv4 nfnetlink 8344 3 nf_nat,nf_conntrack_ipv4,nf_conntrack ip_tables 14900 0 x_tables 18404 1 ip_tables tun 13504 1 mol 59304 1 * exit Mac-On-Linux * launch Mac-on-Linux ==> all is now well. An examination of the output from 'lsmod' shows the missing modules have magically appeared: Module Size Used by xt_tcpudp 3424 2 ipt_MASQUERADE 4096 1 iptable_nat 8452 1 nf_nat 20660 2 ipt_MASQUERADE,iptable_nat nf_conntrack_ipv4 13448 2 iptable_nat nf_conntrack 73408 4 ipt_MASQUERADE,iptable_nat,nf_nat,nf_conntrack_ipv4 nfnetlink 8344 3 nf_nat,nf_conntrack_ipv4,nf_conntrack ip_tables 14900 1 iptable_nat x_tables 18404 4 xt_tcpudp,ipt_MASQUERADE,iptable_nat,ip_tables tun 13504 1 mol 59304 1 Looks like something has changed in the 2.6.21.x kernels that effects how IP_MASQUERADE is set up.
