Aliases have been defined, so you can keep using the old names. Thanks Pascal for the response. Couldn't find any documentation about that on netfilter site, but've seen that on the list. When compiling kernel there are potions to introduce them in netfilter modules, but there aren't modules or aliases to those names =C2=BFcan y= ou tell me how to add those alias? insmod keep telling me that ip_conntrack_amanda and ftp couldn't be loaded (I keep trying to load them on my firewall script).=20 I've found nf_conntrack_* files, but are .h ones, and are at the includ= e path of the kernel source code, at netfilter section. I'll keep searching for more info. Cheers. Martin
