I'm trying to install ipkungfoo on my server box. I followed the instructions in the README file. When I went to start it, it gave me a string of errors, that I'm not sure how to fix:
bullet ipkungfu # ipkungfu Checking configuration... FATAL: Module ip_tables not found. iptables v1.3.4: can't initialize iptables table `filter': iptables who? (do you need to insmod?) Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded. ipkungfu can't create new chains or the script was interrupted previously! Flushing iptables rulesets... FATAL: Module ip_tables not found. iptables v1.3.4: can't initialize iptables table `filter': iptables who? (do you need to insmod?) Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded. Clearing old chains and tables... cat: /proc/net/ip_tables_names: No such file or directory Your kernel lacks LOG support required by this script. Aborting. Any clues? It sounds to me like it's a kernel module thing, but what would a kernel module have to do with a firewall? It said that iptables might be out of date, but iptables was emerged right before ipkungfu. If it matters, the kernel info is: bullet ipkungfu # uname -a Linux bullet 2.6.14-gentoo-r5 #1 SMP Mon Dec 26 14:54:40 CST 2005 i586 AMD-K6(tm) 3D processor AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
