Hi All,
Not having a good time researching this in Google, unless
I want to do it in Ubuntu.
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.
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.
> From a colleague working on our RHEL 6 deployment (similar to F14/F15):
root # vi /etc/sysconfig/modules/ip_nat_ftp.modules
#!/bin/sh
exec /sbin/modprobe ip_nat_ftp
root # chmod +x /etc/sysconfig/modules/ip_nat_ftp.modules
Perhaps you should also start using the new name, nf_nat_ftp (although
its alias, ip_nat_ftp, the previous name, still works).
Awsome. Thank you!
I took a look over in my CentOS 5.6 server and found
/etc/sysconfig/modules/udev-stw.modules:
#!/bin/sh
MODULES="nvram floppy parport lp snd-powermac"
[ -f /etc/sysconfig/udev-stw ] && . /etc/sysconfig/udev-stw
for i in $MODULES ; do
modprobe $i >/dev/null 2>&1
done
Which confirms your recommendation. I will use the new name
as you suggested.
I will be able to get at the SL6 machine on Tuesday. I am
very confident your recommendation will work.
