I went to reload (iptables-restore) my iptables configuration and obtained an error at the COMMIT statement. No further details were provided even when I ran restore with the -v option.
I ran lsmod and I do not find that ipt_recent is loaded. In fact, I don not see any ipt modules other than itp_LOG. There was a recent kernel update. Does anyone know if this had any adverse effects on loading ipt_recent?
. . . ip_tables 17029 3 iptable_nat,iptable_mangle,iptable_filter ipt_LOG 10049 6 ipv6 267489 23 ip6t_REJECT . . .
And this does not look good either:
# modprobe --first-time ipt_recent FATAL: Error inserting ipt_recent (/lib/modules/2.6.18-164.9.1.el5/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ipt_recent.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
There is no entry in /var/log/dmesg relating to this problem.
