Hello, i have just installed and set up the shore wall on a redhat 7.2 system.
when i try to start it I get the following error messages

modprobe: Can''t locate module ip_tables
iptables v1.2.4: can''t initialize iptables table `filter'':
iptables who? (do you
 need to insmod?)
Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded.
Terminated

I am pritty sure i have to recompile my kernel again, but what are the modules
ore setting do I enable? thanks allot.

The kernel that came with RH7.2 works fine with Shorewall. See the FAQ for
instructions for disabling ipcahins.

If you insist on compiling your own kernel, see
