Hello,
I'm trying to find out if the ipt_random module can be compiled in to the
2.6 kernels? A few years ago (back in the day of kernel 2.4) I patched and
compiled this module in to the kernel and used it in a load balancing
script (shotgunning cable modems). I'm interested in doing this with a new
box running FC5 (currently kernel 2.6.18) but have found very little
information on it. I finally figured out how to get POM again (I think I
got the right version anyways... it's now POM-NG however the release date
was in 2004) and found the random source there but the info note says it
only works on kernels below 2.6.0. Do I just have too old of a version of
the POM package or is the random module really only available in the 2.4
kernel? If it's not available in the 2.6 kernel are their any alternative
modules that I should be looking in to (perhaps the nth module although I
haven't really read up on it yet)? Any help would be appreciated. It was
great shotgunning cable modems with this setup a few years ago and it
would be even cooler if I could get this working on a more modern distro
(I am open to other distro's other than Fedora if someone knows of one
that might be better for my routing purposes).
Thanks,
Thomas Sandquist

2.6.18 has a module called statistic match.
You must upgrade to iptables 1.3.6

Thanks for the help! Do you know where I can find more information on
this statistic match module in 2.6.18. I compiled IPTables 1.3.6 and
installed it and am now able to add the module to my command line put
there is very poor documentation on this modules use and capabilities.
The syntax in iptables didn't help me a whole lot either. I tried using
this module in random mode and am assuming from the error I was getting
earlier that I must use a decimal for the probability but then I get
errors about chain, target, or match not existing when I try to jump
from that table to my packet marking table (for iproute2 to use). Any
additional information or sites you can provide with information would
be of great value.
Also, probably not for this discussion but does anyone know the proper
way to rebuild the iptables 1.3.6 tarball in to a rpm file? I seriously
doubt my issues are related to this but just thought I'd ask since the
binary package is a little cleaner on the package based systems.
Thanks for all the help so far.
Tom
