If you run "dmesg | grep filter" do you see: ip_tables: (C) 2000-2002 Netfilter core team ??? Can we assume you did "make modules_install" when building the current kernel? Did you run "emerge iptables" (Im assuming yes) ? Do you have any IP tables modules too? ("grep IP_NF_ /usr/src/linx/.config" should tell you). -- -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
