Like the error says : your iptables binary cannot use a matching kernel module. Does this come from a distro CD or did you recompile the kernel without recompiling iptables or something like that ? Or perhaps you installed a 2.6 kernel and a 2.4 iptables binary from CD (we don't know if your distro supports both kernels) ? > I think that getsockopt has error in TC_INIT. Kernel 2.6.9 and iptables-1.2.11 date back to june/october 2004 AFAICT. If there was an error in the code then a lot of people would have this problem and it would be solved with a recent kernel/iptables.. Gr, Rob
