I upgraded from 2.6.15-rc7 to 2.6.17-rc1. rc1 seems nice other than that iptables stopped working: failed iptables v1.3.5: can't initialize iptables table filter: iptables who? (do you need to insmod?) Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded. iptables is compiled in the kernel, not a module: CONFIG_NETFILTER=y I can even do "modprobe iptable_nat" successfully (iptable_nat is module), but iptables refuses to work. iptables is of version iptables-1.3.5-1.2. The kernel config is copied with make oldconfig from 2.6.15-rc7 (which worked), not much else has changed. I just booted back to 2.6.15-rc7 and verified it works. Any ideas? -- v -- v@iki.fi
