Indeed, there were some of the options in the Gentoo kernel that I couldn't get to compile, esp the netfilter options. Try turning off the 'realm matching' in the networking setting: make menuconfig Networking Options IP: Netfilter Configuration In here, tick everything as a module then untick stealth match support realm match support String match support (EXPERIMENTAL) IMQ target support CLASSIFY target support (EXPERIMENTAL) ROUTE target support and that got mine working. hope this helps, -- Tom Wesley Please encrypt personal replies if possible.
