L.S. Experimenting with a firewall I compiled a monolithic kernel with masquerading and without loadable module support so as to make it impossible to subvert the kernel by a malicious module. But alas, the special masq modules for irc and ftp and so forth are only made and available as modules :( This is handy, especially a modified ftp module that snoops passwords would work for whatever-your-color-of-hat to do his thing. So this brings security but partially hast the functionality of a disconnected system.:) Is there a way to not make them a module but put them into my kernel?
