Hello ppl! :-)
I'm recompiling kernel 2.4.17 with bridge netfilter and ebtables turned on. I applied to the kernel sources all the patches available at http://bridge.sourceforge.net/patchtracker.html and not yet included in the kernel, that is: 01_config_inet_dependency.diff, 02_enslave_bridge_dev_to_bridge_dev.diff, 2.4_fix_port_state_handling.diff and I had no errors, just a few shifted lines. Applying the bridge-nf-0.0.5-against-2.4.17.diff I got 1 error because the 1st hunk of net/bridge/br_private.h is already there. Lines from 498 to 505 should be removed from the patch to make it work correctly. Applying the ebtablesv1.0_vs_nf-0.0.4.diff I got 1 error because the 1st hunk, the one relative to linux/net/Config.in, finds a pattern different from the one expected. To avoid this problem just modify line 6 of the patch from: tristate '802.1d Ethernet Bridging' CONFIG_BRIDGE to: dep_tristate '802.1d Ethernet Bridging' CONFIG_BRIDGE $CONFIG_INET Hope this notes might be useful for people using those patches. All the best, Roberto. _______________________________________________ Bridge mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.math.leidenuniv.nl/mailman/listinfo/bridge
