Hi Ali,
I was just in the process of sending you a note about this with the
2.4.28 kernel. I did a simple clean recompile with the pom-ng-20040621
against iptables 1.2.11 source with only the pptp conntrack patches
applied, and indeed, it did recompile without making the changes to the
code in
line 108 in ip_nat_proto_gre.c. I then later ran through and applied a boat-load more of the available patches, and ran back into the problem again! I was about to start the tedious process of trying to figure out which patch nerfed pptp conntrack. I definitely did apply both the tproxy and the nat-reservations patches, and after that, it was borked again! I will cc the netfilter list with this info as well. I was also unable to recompile iptables 1.2.11 after those patches, something borked ipt_mac.c in that series of patches. I will pay closer attention next time, and see if I can narrow it down. Thanks very much for the heads-up!
