Hi, I meant some features of the 2.2.x -kernels. I tried to set up a firewall with ipchains and the firewall-introduction from www2.little-idiot.de/firewall. A recognized, that a RedHat kernel have more features enabled that were necessary for building up a firewall with ipchains. That's what I mean. MfG.

thats right. But I use a 2.4.7 from kernel.org on my SuSE system. I think the patch is applied to this version. I take this kernel, because I recognized that some featurs I need are not implemented in the SuSE kernels.

What is missing in the SuSE kernels that exists in stock kernels? We never remove any functionality from Linus' kernels, so I'm very curious what you're referring to.
