Hi, I'm using kernel 2.4.19 and need the talk-conntrack-patch. So I got the latest version of netfilter by CVS. Running './runme extra/talk-conntrack-nat.patch' showed: === cut === Welcome to Rusty's Patch-o-matic! Each patch is a new feature: many have minimal impact, some do not. Almost every one has bugs, so I don't recommend applying them all! ------------------------------------------------------- Testing... talk-conntrack-nat.patch NOT APPLIED ( 3 missing files) The extra/talk-conntrack-nat patch: Author: Jozsef Kadlecsik <kadlec@blackhole.kfki.hu> Status: Alpha This adds CONFIG_IP_NF_TALK: talk support module for netfilter connection tracking and NAT. This allows both the callee client - caller server and callee client - caller client connections to work through connection tracking and NAT. Default both talk (UDP port 517) and ntalk/ntalk2 (UDP port 518) are supported. talk/ntalk/ntalk2 supports can selectively be enabled/disabled by the module parameters of the ip_conntrack_talk and ip_nat_talk modules: talk=0|1 ntalk=0|1 ntalk2=0|1 where '0' means 'don't support' while '1' means 'do support' the given protocol flavour. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Do you want to apply this patch [N/y/t/f/a/r/b/w/v/q/?] t Testing patch extra/talk-conntrack-nat.patch...
