When I recompiled my kernel to 2.4.18, I added basically most of the Netfilter modules as, err.. modules. However; modprobe ip_tables /lib/modules/2.4.18/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o : init_module: Device or resource busy.
lsmod doesn't show any ip_tables or similar modules loaded. I installed the iptables package (debian), but I get the same error.
Any ideas?
TIA Ricardo

modprobe with either -v and/or -d and see if that sheds any light. That module seems to be loaded automatically when required here.
There are a few cases where required modules are not build by the current kernel build process. I didn't think ip_tables was one, although the modules do conflict with some other filtering options you might have selected?
One day, the Linux kernel build will be able to accurately model interdependencies. By then, we'll probably be using Hurd ;-) but what will this group be called? AGUG?
