Time Patch and Kernel 2.6.10

Time Patch and Kernel 2.6.10

[Michael Milvich]

Hallo,

I want to update my firewall from kernel 2.4 to 2.6.
When testing the new system the time patch doesn't work correctly. I 
have the following problems:

The option --timestart doesn't work. I can set any time for the hour 
highter  then zero and iptables will block them. The timestop option 
works correctly.

#This works
iptables -A INPUT -m time --timestart 00:00/ --timestop 10:00 --days 
Thu,Fri -j DROP
#but if I set the timestart to/
iptables -A INPUT -m time --timestart 01:00/ --timestop 10:00 --days 
Thu,Fri -j DROP
#everything will be blocked
/
The other Problem is the option days: if I set only one day it doesn' t 
work.

#This will block all
iptables -A INPUT -m time --timestart 00:00/ --timestop 10:00 --days Fri 
-j DROP/

#This will work
iptables -A INPUT -m time --timestart 00:00/ --timestop 10:00 --days 
Thu,Fri -j DROP/

Now my question is if the time patch could not work with kernel 2.6 or 
if I am doing something wrong.

Thanks for help

Michael
