Hi list, I have an old domU VM debian etch in production for several years, but last week I'm getting problems with the firewall (iptables), and when I run iptables -L, I get the error in the subject: server:~# iptables -L iptables v1.3.6: can't initialize iptables table `filter': Bad file descriptor Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded. I've searched the archives but didn't find anything useful. I don't know if any update at dom0 or domU could make this, but I have others domU's without any iptables problem in the same dom0. Do you know how can I fix it? More details: on domU -- linux-kernel-headers 2.6.18-7 on domU -- iptables 1.3.6.0debian1-5 on dom0 -- linux-kernel-headers 2.6.18-7 on dom0 -- linux-image-2.6.18-6-xen-amd64 2.6.18.dfsg.1-23etch1 on dom0 -- iptables 1.3.6.0debian1-5 An odd thing, in spite of iptables gives this error there are rules running in the server, but I can't stop them right now and I need to make a change there. :-( thanks for your time. -- Regards; Israel Garcia -- 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
