 |

Hello, everybody.
I was about to post this question, but in doing so I thought of a solution. I'll post both the question and the solution so that somebody else with the same problem won't have to ask.
I've recently upgraded from kernel 2.6.16-gentoo-r13 to 2.6.17-gentoo-r4, and now I get the following error when running kmyfirewall:
| Code: |
Create Rules for Chain: INPUT getsockopt failed strangely: No such file or directory
Setting up Rule: NFS_TCP FAILED !!!
|
The rule that it says failed is as follows:
| Code: |
$IPT -t filter -A INPUT --protocol tcp --match multiport --destination-port 111,2049,32765,32766,32767 -j ACCEPT
|
The solution:
I found this in my /usr/src/linux/.config file:
| Code: |
# CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_MULTIPORT is not set
|
Since the above rule is trying to do a multiport match (to ports 111,2049,32765,32766,32767), that part of the kernel config should be:
| Code: |
CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_MULTIPORT=y
|
Either change it using a text editor, "make menuconfig", or "make xconfig", and then recompile your kernel as usual.
