(?)Help me... install iptables

(?)Help me... install iptables

[Hai To Thanh]

  Hi, 
  I download: iptables-1.2.4.tar.bz2 and
linux-2.4.16.tar.gz to setup firewall under Linux 7.1.

  But when I type command: 

  make pending-patches KERNEL_DIR=/usr/src/linux 

to attach functions iptables-1.2.4 to kernel then
following message appear:

  "make: *** Warning: File "Rule.make" has
modification time in the future ( 2001-08-06 01:50:21
> 1998-01-01 02:26:21).
  
  making dependencies: please wait..."

and forever repeating some following message :

  "make: *** Warning: File "Rule.make" has
modification time in the future ( 2001-08-06 01:50:21
> 1998-01-01 02:26:28).
  "make: *** Warning: File "Rule.make" has
modification time in the future ( 2001-08-06 01:50:21
> 1998-01-01 02:26:31).
  "make: *** Warning: File "Rule.make" has
modification time in the future ( 2001-08-06 01:50:21
> 1998-01-01 02:26:34).
  "make: *** Warning: File "Rule.make" has
modification time in the future ( 2001-08-06 01:50:21
> 1998-01-01 02:26:37).
...."
 
 until I type CTRL + C.

 Help me!
 Thank for your help.

It seems that you either installed your whole system or simply the
kernel without setting the proper date on the machine. make thinks that
the date is early in the morning on 1 Jan 1998 and you're trying to
install stuff that is to be made in the future and the security doesn't
like that. Quite right too.

Reset the date on the machine to today's date, using 'date' ('man date')
and everything should work.

Best,

Tony
