I also ask the same - this 'config' problem/option has been posted on the list previously, I believe. I was about to update my gateway box to 2.6.16.9 this weekend, and I do not build modules on that - so what do I need to do to ensure this xt_tcpudp is built in? Is '> make oldconfig' enough to pull this in?
