Hello list, Debian has had these patches by Santiago Garcia Mantinan for ages [0][1], and they have not been applied yet. We're trying to run a 32-bit brctl on a 64-bit system, and got bitten by this. Can you apply the patches below so other distributions can also benefit from this?

How do bridging and firewalling go together? First of all, you need a kernel patch against the 2.4 kernel to actually make firewalling bridged packets possible. You need to apply this patch to your kernel and recompile -it, or alternatively, download a pre-patched Red Hat 7.2 kernel RPM and use -that. The patch and kernel RPM are located at: +it. The patch is maintained at: - http://bridge.sourceforge.net/devel/bridge-nf/ + http://ebtables.sourceforge.net/ Now if you boot with this kernel, you can use the regular iptables firewalling as if you were doing routing.
