Hi all,
Fedora 5 patched, i386 SMP
I am looking for info on how to dynamically load a particular kernel module
when I restart IPTables. I have firewalling rules in place for FTP traffic
(both passive and active) however when I restart IPTables I notice that the
module ip_conntrack_ftp does not load, I have to load it manually. This
presents a problem if someone other than myself has to reload firewall rules on
this machine but isn't aware of the FTP rules/needs.
Will adding the line "ip_conntrack_ftp" to the modules.conf file solve this
problem and leave the particular module in permanently?
Patch /etc/sysconfig/iptables-config, mine looks like:
# Additional iptables modules (nat helper)
# Default: -empty-
IPTABLES_MODULES="ip_conntrack_ftp"
