Hello,
�
I am new to this group, and to Linux as well. I ran into difficulties installing a firewall (IPTables) on our Red Hat 9 machine, and need some guidance. There are several problems:
�
1. The ip_nat_ftp module is missing from the kernel. I thought it was supposed to be part of standard install, but since I was not the one who originally installed my RH9, I do not know how it became missing.
�
2. I added the iptables script to /etc/rc.d/init.d directory, and even though this is a close copy of the script that successfully runs on another machine with Red Hat 7.2, on�RH9 it generates a long array of error messages, such as:
�
No such file or directory: /sbin/iptables��� /* Not true, the file exists */
Invalid target name 'DROP'����������������������� /* It was OK on RH7.2 */
Can you post part of the iptables script?
