Yes... To avoid any kind of misunderstanding during the configuration,
this is what I did:
- I downloaded a 2.4.18-vanilla tarball
- I've checked out thru CVS the entire netfilter/userspace repository
directory
- I launched the make patch-o-matic
It obviously made a lot of questions for each patch to install, and it
didn't find anything wrong during the whole process.
The only problem happens when it tries to install the tftp-conntrack
helper (that was what I really needed from all this thing... damn...):
it comes out with:
Testing patch extra/tftp-conntrack-nat.patch...
Placed new Config.in line
Placed new Config.in line
Placed new Configure.help entry
Placed new Makefile line
Could not find place to slot in Makefile line
TEST FAILED: patch NOT applied.

And this is not such a verbose comment if I need to understand where the
problem is :-)
Thanx 4 all...
