iptables and 2.4.17

iptables and 2.4.17

[Luca Adesso]

There is some problem with iptables modules and kernel 2.4.17 ?
I'm using 2.4.10 and it works fine; I tried on another computer at work the 
2.4.17 but I got unresolved symbol errors
ip_tables.o: unresolved symbol nf_unregister_sockopt
ip_tables.o: unresolved symbol nf_register_sockopt

I downloaded 2.4.16 and compiled with the same configuration and it works fine.
I have Slackware 7.0

Please CC me for the reply.
Thanks.

Strange. Are you sure you really did it in the following order:

make clean (better: make mrproper)
- configure the kernel
make bzImage
- install your new bzImage
make modules
make modules_install
- boot into your new kernel

We haven't had any bug report regarding your problem, and I'm personally 
also running plain 2.4.17 on one of my boxes without any problems.

Sure I always do in the same way!
I go in /usr/src and rm -r linux and rm linux-2.4.5 (the kernel installed 
with Slackware 7.0) then downloaded kernel 2.4.17
make mrproper and reconfigured my kernel.
I create a script to compile the kernel, so I'm sure I do al the same 
everytime.
The script is:
#mkernel begin
#!/bin/sh
make dep && make clean && make bzImage && make modules
make modules_install
cp System.map /boot
cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot
lilo
#mkernel end

I have problem with iptables.o and with apm.o.
For apm I haven't found help and I never create a working modules so I 
compiled it in the kernel.
I was sure that iptables works like modules and now it's working fine on 
that system with 2.4.16

Any suggestions?

Er... are you sure you don't mean Slackware 8.0? Slackware 7.0 was 2.2.x.

Could you please send me your .config kernel configuration in private mail
(NOT to the linux-kernel list), I will try to reproduce your problem

It definitely works in all relesed kernel version since 2.4.0 as modules, 
I've used all of them :)
