Re: Iptables and Kernel

I just downloaded 2.6.5, may I ask where should I check to see if h323
modules are included? On www.netfilter.org, I see pom-20031219 and
pomng-20040302. Is it safe to assume, that pomng includes pom?

You might find the following postings from the archives relevant here:

Thank you so much. From the postings, it looks like 2.6.x is still lacking some features that are available in 2.4.x. I'm setting up a firewall with NAT and hoping to able to do Netmeeting and MSN Instant Messenger. Would 2.4.x's netfilter patches sufficient to protect my LAN?

I'm running 2.6.3. with iptables 1.2.9 and p-o-m-ng h323 patch -- they work
for me -- but I'm referring to a home lan ond only one netmeeting seesioon from the LAN -- we haven't tried multiple sessions from inside the lan ... either to the same netmeeting sessioon or to different ones.

I'm trying to compile p-o-m-ng with 2.6.5 now. It asks for iptables sources. I thought p-o-m-ng patches applies to the kernel only. Do I need to recompile iptables too? There are many patches in p-o-m-ng. I only need the h323 patch for Netmeeting to work correctly? The README from p-o-m-ng recommends the following command to patch the kernel,


# KERNEL_DIR=/usr/src/linux ./runme -pending

Do I need to worry about rejects and offsets?

Regards,
Norman
