Good afternoon,

Here is just a bit more information for those who may be interested.

Suse 10.0 hangs when trying to load the nf_conntrack module, either 
using Shorewall or manually.  The strange part is that i don't think 
that it should try - it should select ip_conntrack rather than the nf_ 
style module , if i  am not mistaken.

It works correctly in Opensuse 10.2, but in a simple default install 
only the ip_ style modules are installed, so the nf_ module is never called.

Thanks for your help.

Patrick
