I need it for trying out Rusty's tutorial to add/delete rules, etc. 2) Downloaded iptables 1.3.0 release, the code failed compilation with the errors similar to what reported by Eric Poulin in July 2004, replied by Jose Teves. I pasted the original email at the end of this message. I would like to check if I need to apply the patch-o-matic (the lastest version?) first then upgrade to 1.3.0 or if there is a method to remove the previous netfilter out of the kernel prior to placing 1.3.0. 3) I compiled and upgraded 1.3.0 to my host RH 9.0 running 2.4.x . Without any rules added (iptables -L showing empty), I found that my system is having trouble with resolving hostnames with DNS servers. Has anybody seen a similar problem? Thank you in advanced.
