I am trying to make the following command permanent:       modprobe   ip_nat_ftp Have a look in /etc/sysconfig/iptables-config I should have said I am running SL6 x64. It is there.  But, running /etc/rc.d/init.d/iptables throws an error on ip_nat_ftp if I do not previously load ip_nat_ftp with modprobe. What I am after is to load ip_nat_ftp at boot time with modprobe.d. A tape and gum approach would be to load ip_nat_ftp in /etc/rc.d/init.d/iptables before it did anything with /etc/sysconfig/iptables-config, but I really would like to learn the right way to do it in modprobe.d. -T Hmm.  Maybe I am going at this wrong.  In Slack12, they use a /etc/rc.d/rc.modules file and just put the module to load into it.
