No, the ip_gre module in Fedora 6 is quite fine for WCCP. No need to compile ip_wccp. And if you really want to compile ip_wccp anyway, it's just a module. No need to recompile the kernel. The current version of ip_wccp should compile fine on Fedora 6 I think, but with ip_gre working much better there is not much efforts being put into testing ip_wccp with newer kernels.. > if yes, am i still required to also install the gre module ? You can only use one of the two at a time. The Fedora kernels ships with GRE support built by default as a module. No need to install anything extra. > how to enable gre module on my fedora 6 ? By loading the ip_gre module as in any other Linux distribution using a modular kernel. modprobe ip_gre > are the following commands enough for gre or im still need to do more > settings ? > is the below command enough to create gre0 interface ? > vi /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-gre0 No idea. Never set it up that way, only manually in rc.local or custom scripts (i.e. the init script for Squid). Probably you need at least a few more variables in ifcfg-gre0 to set the tunnel endpoints etc if setting it up that way.. but keep in mind that the WCCP interface is not a true tunnel interface, it's a one-directional tunnel, only accepting traffic, no traffic should be routed to this "tunnel" by the cache server.. Also you need to remember to disable rp_filter on the wccp/gre interface.. The following Regards Henrik
