I very much wanted to use the window tracking patch but an unable to get it to apply. I am running RedHat 7.3 with kernel 2.4.20. The patch-o-matic test replies: Testing... tcp-window-tracking.patch NOT APPLIED (29 rejects out of 32 hunks) When I try to apply the patch I get: Patch extra/tcp-window-tracking.patch conflicts with extra/ip_conntrack-timeouts.patch... ip_conntrack-timeouts.patch NOT APPLIED (1 missing files) Testing patch extra/tcp-window-tracking.patch... Placed new Makefile line Failed to patch copy of /usr/src/linux TEST FAILED: patch NOT applied. I do not have ip_conntrack-timeouts.patch installed. I even tried reversing that patch in case it was installed without my knowing it but it is not there. I rebuilt the kernel and tried the tcp-window-tracking patch as the only patch but that didn't work either. I tried applying it separately after applying all other patches. That didn't work. What am I doing wrong? Thanks - John -- John A.
