Help with patch - o - matic

[Juan Pablo Feria Gomez]

I can apply the patches to my 2.4.18-14 Kernel Source, any hints =(

I want to add the -m string functionality to my iptables (is still
supported?)...


iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -p tcp -m string "pepee" -j DROP
iptables v1.2.6a: Couldn't load match
`string':/lib/iptables/libipt_string.so: cannot open shared object file:
No such file or directory


"/lib/iptables/libipt_string.so" is installed by the kernel or by the
the iptables package (if i can install it =S  )...



Thanx in advance


Here are the error when i try to patch (fails in all attempts to
patch)...

Each patch is a new feature: many have minimal impact, some do not.
Almost every one has bugs, so I don't recommend applying them all!
