Back Hi,
I have two RH9 systems - with a different system history. As I tried to set up firewalls I saw that one system is running with ipchains and the other one with iptables. I'd like to have both ones on iptables. But when I try to run (on the system with ipchains) iptables --list I get a bunch of nasty error messages like:
/lib/modules/2.4.20-8/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o: init_module: Device or resource busy Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters. You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg /lib/modules/2.4.20-8/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.20-8/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o failed /lib/modules/2.4.20-8/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o: insmod ip_tables failed iptables v1.2.7a: can't initialize iptables table `filter': iptables who? (do you need to insmod?) Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded.
How can I switch to iptables safely? dmesg or syslog gave no further hints...
br, Pekka
