netfilter problem

["saravanan chanemouganandam" <saravanan_sprt@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I have a problem in compiling "netfilter" for Iptables support into the 
linux 2.6.12 kernel version. I have manually enabled the config option 
"CONFIG_NETFILTER=y" and all netfilter configuration CONFIG_IP_NF_* manually 
in to the "mainstone_defconfig" file for my target arm board.

Now, the problem is that, on "make vmlinux", the files under the 
"linux/2.6.12/net/ipv4/netfilter" directory doesn't gets compiled leaving 
built-in.o and this annoys me a lot.

Could any one please precise me, what are the options I need to check or 
enable in the config, Kconfig or in Makefile to get the "netfilter" compiled 
into my kernel?

Thanks.

Regards,
Sara
