Hey, I had a similar problem. The cause was running the recent kernel version and an older iptables. I upgraded iptables to the latest version and my problem was solved.

The iptables-save added a "-m" in my rules-save and that caused the same error as "blah blah". I edited the file (/var/lib/iptables/rules-save) and then restored the rules again and it worked just fine after that. In the latest version of iptables this is fixed. //kim > -----Original Message----- > From: Antony Stone [mailto:Antony@Soft-Solutions.co.uk]=20 > Sent: Monday, October 21, 2002 11:15 PM > To: netfilter@lists.netfilter.org > Subject: Re: Trouble with --dport >=20 >=20 > On Monday 21 October 2002 10:07 pm, blah blah wrote: >=20 > > The exact error message is: > > iptables-restore v1.2.5: Unknown arg `--dport` >=20 > Okay, so this is an error from iptables-restore, not the=20 > straight iptables=20 > command (which is what I'd mistakenly thought you meant at first). >=20 > What commands did you set up before using iptables-save, and=20 > what is your=20 > saved configuration ? >=20 > Antony. >=20 > --=20 >=20 > This email was created using 100% recycled electrons. >=20 >=20
