Slackware 10 w/ ip_nat_ftp and ip_conntrack_ftp modules?

Hi,

I got Slackware 10 (small) up and running w/ everything working just great. However, when I tried getting iptables to work, I can't seem to find the following modules to load:

ip_nat_ftp
ip_conntrack_ftp

When issued

Code:

modprobe ip_nat_ftp

I get

Code:

FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.4.26-linode31-1um/modules.dep: No such file or directory

The same thing for

Code:

modprobe ip_conntrack_ftp

I get

Code:

FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.4.26-linode31-1um/modules.dep: No such file or directory

When I ls "/lib/modules", the dir is empty. Doing a "locate ip_conntrack_ftp" does give me this:

Code:

/usr/include/linux/netfilter_ipv4/ip_conntrack_ftp.h

Being somewhat new to the Linux OS, where/how do I get the modules for Slackware?

On a minor but separate issue... "man" command also isn't installed in Slackware 10 (small). Issuing "man" gets me

Code:

-bash: man: command not found

After issuing "swaret --install man", I installed man-1.5l-i386-1 and man-pages-1.60-noarch-1. Then doing a "man ls" gets me this error:

Code:

sh: line 1: /usr/bin/gtbl: No such file or directory
sh: line 1: /usr/bin/nroff: No such file or directory
lines ?-?/? (END)

Any idea how to get "man" to work?

Thank you...

Modules are disabled in the Linode kernels since they would present a security problem (insmod gimmie_host_shell, or insmod hack_me_to_host, or something). However, everything you need should already be compiled into the kernel: http://www.linode.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1006 CONFIG_IP_NF_NAT=y CONFIG_IP_NF_CONNTRACK=y As far as your "man" problem (no pun intended), it looks to me like man has dependencies on gtbl and nroff. -Chris

I'll give that a shot... Thanks.. Quote: As far as your "man" problem (no pun intended), it looks to me like man has dependencies on gtbl and nroff. Hah! Let me see what i need to do to resolve that... Thanks again...

I recommend you start a new thread and tell us what your problem is, and we'll help you there.
