[uml-user] iptables question

[kewlemer <kew...@gm...>]

Hi all,

I'm running 2.6.24 UML kernel and Fedora AMD64 filesystem from
http://uml.nagafix.co.uk/.

I have compiled all the netfilter and iptables options the 2.6.24
kernel provides.

I have also installed the iptables userspace program by simply doing a
"yum install iptables". The version installed is
"iptables-1.3.8-6.fc8".

Though I have the latest stable UML kernel and iptables programs, when
I boot up the UML I get loads of these module load errors -
http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=ddjtzn4_6fnp9ghc6

Can anyone please tell me what I'm missing.

iptables -L gives the following error -
-bash-3.2# iptables -L
WARNING: Error inserting x_tables
(/lib/modules/2.6.24/kernel/net/netfilter/x_tables.ko): Invalid module
format
FATAL: Error inserting ip_tables
(/lib/modules/2.6.24/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.ko): Unknown
symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
iptables v1.3.8: can't initialize iptables table `filter': iptables
who? (do you need to insmod?)
Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded.
-bash-3.2#

I'm not sure why it complains about version and throws those module
symbol errors when I'm running the latest version of the kernel and
iptables.

Any pointers/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
KM
