For POM-ng, if you look in the snapshot directory of the FTP server, you'll find daily versions up to yesterday. However, I recently tried to use on of those to install the condition patch, and it failed for reasons that I wasn't able to figure out in 30 mins. or so of research. POM has now been superseded by xtables-addons (http://jengelh.medozas.de/projects/xtables/). Unfortunately the netfilter site hasn't been updated yet to reflect this. Discussion threads on that in this forum within the last week: POM Xtables??? patch-0-matic problems..? At first I was annoyed at yet another big change in netfilter patching, but xtables-addons is better because it doesn't require you to patch either your kernel or iptables. > I'd really like to patch in TARPITs, but the latest POM does not work > with the latest iptable src ("doesn't look like a iptables source code > directory to me.") You have to run ./configure in your iptables source dir first. Not sure if that used to be the case-- I think it wasn't. That gets to wny I always used to hate using POM. It was unique and volatile-- about once a year someone would change something and my script would break and I'd have to go back and figure it all out again. Good riddance, I say. Good luck, Andrew. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
