Hi all,

I have a bridging firewall running fine with kernel 2.4.31 (Slackware 10.1) and iptables 1.2.11

Yesterday I install the new kernel 2.6.14.3 and iptables 1.3.4 but the bridging firewall doesn't work anymore.

Do I need to patch the kernel 2.6 as what I did it for kernel 2.4? Or what I have missed?

Regards,
ro0ot

You should not need to patch your kernel. Can you show your firewall script and any errors that you get?

I am using kernel 2.6.14.3, iptables 1.3.4 and bridge-utils 1.0.6

I did flag the "802.1d Ethernet Bridging" in Networking support/Networking options

Mr. ro0ot,

You need:
1. Kernel 2.6.xx
2. Iptables 1.3.xx
3. brctl-util

In kernel configuration, do you flag '802.1d Ethernet Bridging' in Network support/Networking options

Sorry my english.

My problem is solved...I didnt compiled the "Bridge: Netfilter Configuration"

And, iptables and ebtables works for me, :)
