[coLinux-devel] conenctions trapping news (good and bad)

[peter g. <plu...@p1...>]

the good news is apart from porting to coserial (which does not exist yet)
conenction trapping is virtuall finished for both tcp and udp

the bad new is the iptables featre i need seems to be broken on 2.4.26 i had
previosly been testing on vmware because colinux at the stage was not
shipping with the modules i needed

the vmware system in question had a 2.4.20 kernel
i checked it on anoter vmware system which i consider more sacrificial which
has a 2.4.22 kernel and the iptables feature i needed worked fine

i then upgraded that system to 2.4.24 and the feature i needed still worked
fine (i picked .24 because it's midway between .22 and .26)

tomorrow i will install 2.4.25 and try that

once i have found the major kernel release i will then need to track it in
more  detail and hopefully find a patch i can reverse out
