It looks for KERNEL_DIR/include/linux/netfilter_ipv4/ipt_connbytes.h whereas 1.3.5 looks for KERNEL_DIR/net/ipv4/netfilter/ipt_connbytes.c > What kernel version are you using. 1.3.5 looks for connbytes.c in > the kernel source. I'm using 2.16.14 and it doesn't exist. I'm using 2.6.17.4 but I've had a look at 2.6.16.27 (which is what LFS 6.2 uses). 2.6.16.27 satisfies the 1.3.6 test, so I would argue using 1.3.6 would tie in better with the the LFS itself.
