Hi list

Just tried the new Trustix 3.0 on an IBM xSeries 346. No problem. 
Installation went fint. Running on soft RAID an working great. "Seems" 
like it boots and respons a litte bit quicker than Trustix 2.2. But it's 
just an "feeling" :)

Well. The box is going to be used as an firewall with Shorewall and ISP 
load balancing - route based iptables balance. Are going to use 
Shorewall to balance instead of an homemade script.

And now the problem. Shorewall requires CONNMARK support in iptables. No 
problem I thoungt. CONNMARK is in the default kernel 2.6 - therefor no 
need to patch kernel.

But CONNMARK isn't compiled in the kernel in Trustix 3.0. Okay, I then 
compiled my own kernel (make, make modules, make install, make 
modules_install) from kernel-source.rpm.

But the kernel won't boot. It fails after the loading modules. Can't 
remember the correct "phrase" or "place".

I can se that the new kernel install modules in, 2.6.11.12-2tr, :

--
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~# ls /lib/modules/
2.6.11.12-2tr/  2.6.11.12-2trsmp/
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~#
---

Is it because I havn't enabled SMP support in the new kernel? Which way 
to take having CONNMARK support in iptables? Could the default kernel 
include CONNMARK support? Or have do I compile the an new kenel the 
rigth way?

Trustix rocks ;)

Best regards
