Enable IPTABLES support in Kernel(2.6.18)

You need to recompile kernel to enable IPTABLES support. I am giving the steps to enable IPTABLES support during kernel recompilation.

Get into the kernel source directory:

#  cd /usr/local/src/kernel<version>
#  make menuconfig

Select the following option (not as a loadable module)

Networking >> Networking options >> Network packet filtering (replaces ipchains) >> Core Netfilter Configuration >> Netfilter Xtables support (required for ip_tables) and select the all following options as modules.

Networking >> Networking options >> Network packet filtering (replaces ipchains) >> IP: Net Filter configurationS >> IP Tables support

#  make
#  make modules
#  make modules_install
#  make install
