I try to find the people who wrote the ingress > policer. I'll also put a note in the HOWTO. When I read the help in the kernel-menu, I saw something under Kernel/User netlink socket (CONFIG_NETLINK) about a device that should be made having major mode 36. Could this be the thing missing that generates the above error? I have no idea how to find out if I have the device or how to make it, since the name isn't mentioned anywhere. I have been looking for a /dev/ingress but that doesn't exist.. Do I have to upgrade to a 2.4.X kernel to get ingress policer to work without the errors? If that's the case, I am willing to give it a try (and probably I should convert my ipchains to iptables?) Clemens Sibon
