Subject: DNS and iptables
Date: Tue, 18 Feb 2003 17:01:29 -0600
I noticed that I wasn't able to connect to RHN and was able
to troubleshoot the problem down to a DNS problem. However,
I'm able to ping the DNS IP's. I'm not able to dig them
though.
I thought the problem might be with iptables, so I tried to
flush it by:
#iptables -F
I get this error:
/lib/modules/2.4.18-24.8.0/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o:
init_module: Device or resource busy
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including
invalid IO or IRQ parameters.
You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg
/lib/modules/2.4.18-24.8.0/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o: insmod
/lib/modules/2.4.18-24.8.0/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o failed
/lib/modules/2.4.18-24.8.0/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.o: insmod
ip_tables failed
iptables v1.2.6a: can't initialize iptables table `filter': iptables who?
(do you need to insmod?)
Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded.
I also tried booting with a earlier kernel version, but I
get the same error.
Any ideas?
