Package: iptables-persistent
Version: 0.5.7
Hello,
In OpenVZ virtual machines, the modprobe command is not always available.
This is because in OpenVZ, the kernel and modules are managed by the
hypervisor, so there is no need of modprobe command in OpenVZ vms.
The command :
/etc/init.d/iptables-persistent save
is working fine, but it displays some error warnings:
# /etc/init.d/iptables-persistent save
[....] Saving rules.../etc/init.d/iptables-persistent: 59:
/etc/init.d/iptables-persistent: /sbin/modprobe: not found
IPv4.../etc/init.d/iptables-persistent: 72: /etc/init.d/iptables-persistent:
/sbin/modprobe: not found
[ ok ...done.
I suggest the attached patch.
Thanks in advance,
Marc
