Ultimately I want to create custom installable Debian packages which give me them for deployment across our network. Evidently they exist as the manpage for iptables in Ubuntu (version 1.3.5.0debian1-1ubuntu2) as does the Netfilter Extensions HOWTO. However, I can't find them in vanilla linux-2.6.21.5, in Debian linux 2.6.18.dfsg.1 (current stable) nor in patch-o-matic-ng, and the original patch-o-matic is listed as obsolete and doesn't apply the patch ("2 files missing") Incidentally, the Extensions HOWTO is presumably outdated as it refers to CVS but you seem to have moved to Subversion at some point. What do I need to do? In particular I could do with having the random match. Is it a case of porting it from the old p-o-m to ng? I'm happy to attempt the port if this is what is needed. Is there anything in particular I need to change or does it just boil down to build system differences? Thanks, Robie.
