Hi all, I am running into the following problem when invoking a netfilter iptables ( v1.3.8) and xtables support in the buildroot's busybox (v1.7.2) system. The netfilter packet configuration and support modules are compiled and built into the linux-2.6.16 kernel image. When a 'C++' application code calls the iptables through sprintf(buff, "%s -t mangle -A PREROUTING %s -j MARK --set-mark 512", Config.iptables, Config.link[i]); it throws the modprobe error. iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -d 88.160.215.156 -p icmp -j MARK --set-mark 512 modprobe: cannot parse modules.dep modprobe: cannot parse modules.dep iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -s 88.160.215.156 -p icmp -j MARK --set-mark 512 modprobe: cannot parse modules.dep modprobe: cannot parse modules.dep iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -d 88.160.215.156 -p tcp --dport http -j MARK --set-mark 512 modprobe: cannot parse modules.dep modprobe: cannot parse modules.dep Normally it shouldn't do module probing as all the netfilter support symbols are included in the kernel image. Can anybody tell me why the system throws the modprobe error though the netfilters supports are built into the kernel image.?
