Hi,

Looking for simple round robin solutions, I tried several times today to use
iptables functions without success.

The cause is that some targets and some matching filters are not available as
modules and not compiled in the kernel.

For instance, the BALANCE target isn’t available. Too bad.

Then, the “-nth” or“-random” parameters aren’t available neither.

Strace states the files are not found :

open("/lib64/xtables/libxt_RANGE.so", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)

stat("/lib64/xtables/libxt_RANGE.so", 0x7ffffd7848e0) = -1 ENOENT (No such
file or directory)

open("/lib64/xtables/libipt_RANGE.so", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)

stat("/lib64/xtables/libipt_RANGE.so", 0x7ffffd7848e0) = -1 ENOENT (No such
file or directory)

And yum doesn’t show much for that module or iptables.

Google doesn’t seem to be a friend….

… So question: is this possible to get those targets/filters working in SL ?

Thanks

P.S : tried this on SL5.3 and SL6.1, 64 bits – and I didn’t try ip6tables…


I think you must be coming from a very old version of iptables. Those just don't exist in the current iptables source.
