I will give it some testing. My Opteron box only runs 2.6.x kernels, which seem to work fine with iptables. > My first idea was that iptables try to use modprobe etc. to probing if > various netfilter kernel modules are present, and it gets confused > when this module-stuff won't work with x86_64 kernel. mh. The only idea I have is that you've somehow ended up with a 32bit iptables (which won't work). It has to be compiled in the same mode as the kernel itself - to assure that structure sizes/alignment/... are consistent. > BR, Jani -- - Harald Welte <laforge@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> http://www.netfilter.org/ ============================================================================ "Fragmentation is like classful addressing -- an interesting early architectural error that shows how much experimentation was going on while IP was being designed." -- Paul Vixie
