OK - so if I want to download the latest kerkel and compile it - what 
files do I need to download and how do I apply the patch?

I'd suggest starting over at kernelnewbies [1]. They have a lot of how to
get started info.

I figured it out - however - the files to download to compile the kernel 
should be accessible from the front page of the web site.

They are - http://kernel.org/ right on the front. (Click either 2.6.17.8 or 
"F", depending on what you need).

Get a compiler? (And the "F" file.)

No, but to the 2.6.17 one. If you want 17.7->17.8, you need the incr one. 
Well, which is missing from the frontpage, right.

Nothing on the world let you compile 2.6.18, it wasn't released yet ;).

See
Documentation/applying-patches.txt
in linux source directory (and other userful docs there -- 00-INDEX and HOWTO as 
a beginning)

Please read Documentation/applying-patches.txt in the kernel source
dir after extracting the tarball.

For a non-web interface, you can use 'ketchup'.

Dumb question

[V Kurien]

Hi all
I'm trying to use ulogd2 to count flows and so I assume that I have to
create iptable rules to match the traffic that I care about.

Based on reading on the web, it seemed that I'd have to (this is on a
stock ubuntu-16.04 with a 4.4 kernel)

Assume that I want to match all TCP packets heading into the host;

(1) Create an iptables rule: iptables -A INPUT -p TCP  -j ULOG --ulog-nlgroup 1
(2) My ulogd.conf looks like:
.. all plugins included

stack=ct1:NFCT,ip2str1:IP2STR,print1:PRINTFLOW,emu1:LOGEMU

I get an error when I try to run the iptables command:

iptables: No chain/target/match by that name.

Clearly I am doing something insane, but what?

Re: Dumb question

[V Kurien]

Please ignore this. The kernel on the machine had been changed from
the generic kernel.

Re: Dumb question

What does your rc.firewall script look like, and why would you need to
restart your server?

Are you not able to just execute /etc/rc.d/rc.firewall and have it
reload the firewall?

Thanks

Mike

Dumb question

[Daniel Phillips]

Hi guys,

Here is a dumb question:  Why does dmsetup use (start, length) for each 
target line instead of just (length)?  Is it useful to leave some parts 
of a virtual device unmapped, and if so, why not require them to be 
mapped explicitly to zero or error?

Regards,

Daniel

We decided to require this:
  (a) to make the tables more readable in their raw form
  (b) as additional validation against bugs

They must be.  Each line has to start where the previous one
ended or you are supposed to get an error.

Dumb question

[Robin Lynn Frank]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 553 bytes --]

Apologies if this is a dumb question but I am new to manipulating
iptables directly.  There is a pest that has been routinely probing us. 
While we simply drop them, I'd like to make it "uncomfortable" for them
to continue.  When I attempt the following, I get the response
indicated.  We are running Mandrake Linus 10.0 Official with a 2.6
kernel.

# /sbin/iptables -A INPUT -s ###.###.#.### -j TARPIT
iptables: No chain/target/match by that name

Any help is appreciated.

I use TARPIT. It is available in the latest POM which you can download.
You need the IPTables source code and the source for your kernel which
well then have to be recompiled. Make CERTAIN that you are not running
conntrack with TARPIT.
