[uml-devel] IPTables Issues on UML Host

[uml-devel] IPTables Issues on UML Host

[David Cary Hart]

I hope that this is the right list.

I have a VDS on UML. Kernel=2.6.17.9

I have re-install netfilter several times and the host just
recompiled the kernel.

I keep getting the following error:
# iptables-save >/etc/sysconfig.iptables
Can't find library for match `tcp'

libipt_tcp.so is where it should be in /lib/iptables. What am I
missing?

Thanks.

 	I think this is probably independent of UML.

 	If you're building netfilter from scratch, head back to the 
netfilter directory and re-run make; see if there are any errors in the 
build process.  If that works OK, run "make install" to see if it finally 
copies over a libipt_tcp.so.  Depending on the build options, it _may_ be 
installed to /usr/lib/iptables/ instead of /lib/iptables.  If that's the 
case, the easiest way to fix this may be to make a symlnk from the 
existing directory to /lib/iptables.  Up to you.
 	Cheers,
 	- Bill

Thanks for the reply.

I am a UML nitwit but I even made a static build of IPTables. No
dice. I have also made builds with specified LIBDIR and BINDIR. 

Oh well, I guess that I need to tinker. Fortunately IPTables is
running properly.
