Hi there. My name is Lucas and I'm from Argentina. Firstly, forgive me for my english since it is not my native languaje. Now, I've been reading on how to compile iproute2 and found that I need to add the following to my kernel, which in my case it is 2.4.20, and it is also the one which this document I read talked about: CONFIG_NETLINK=y CONFIG_RTNETLINK=y # CONFIG_NETLINK_DEV is not set CONFIG_NETFILTER=y CONFIG_NETFILTER_DEBUG=y # CONFIG_FILTER is not set CONFIG_UNIX=y CONFIG_INET=y # CONFIG_IP_MULTICAST is not set CONFIG_IP_ADVANCED_ROUTER=y CONFIG_RTNETLINK=y CONFIG_NETLINK=y CONFIG_IP_MULTIPLE_TABLES=y CONFIG_IP_ROUTE_FWMARK=y CONFIG_IP_ROUTE_NAT=y CONFIG_IP_ROUTE_MULTIPATH=y CONFIG_IP_ROUTE_TOS=y CONFIG_IP_ROUTE_VERBOSE=y CONFIG_IP_ROUTE_LARGE_TABLES=y # CONFIG_IP_PNP is not set CONFIG_NET_IPIP=m CONFIG_NET_IPGRE=m # CONFIG_ARPD is not set # CONFIG_INET_ECN is not set The thing is that I can't find the CONFIG_NETLINK or the CONFIG_RTNETLINK options anywhere along my kernel. Do I need to add any patch to it?. In the case I need to doit, where can I get it from ? Thank you Best Regards Lucas

I'm not sure what you need, but if you want to use, you have to enable the needed options onder "QoS and/or fair queueing".

To do that, I believe I need the ip command and the tc command, both included in iproute2, am I right?? If so, I need to enable the NETLINK socket, provided by the kernel. But listen, I may be wrong with all this thinking ... please correct me. Thank you Lucas
