I have downloaded the latest iptables file and : iptables-1.2.8.tar.bz2

And the patch: Patch against 1.2.7a

I have also tried the patch-o-matic patch-o-matic-20030107.tar.bz2

When i tried to "make" on both the patches, the prompt returned with "nothing to be done"

 

When i run a genral make i get the following error:

 

[root@manet iptables-1.2.8]# make
Extensions found:
ld -shared -o extensions/libipt_ah.so extensions/libipt_ah_sh.o
ld: extensions/libipt_ah_sh.o: Relocations in generic ELF (EM: 40)
extensions/libipt_ah_sh.o: could not read symbols: File in wrong format
make: *** [extensions/libipt_ah.so] Error 1
[root@manet iptables-1.2.8]#

 

I seem to be following the instructions so i dont know where i am going wrong. (My KERNEL_DIR is the source code directory for the kernel i am using)

Both 'gcc' and 'arm-linux-gcc' (for the iPaq) give me the same error.

 

Please could someone help me.

Many thanks in advance for your kind response.
