This config option is not in the kernel tree anymore. We (gentoo) didn't remove it. If you have a problem with the option being gone, please bring it up to the linux kernel networking developers. |
I was trying to set up tun networking for pearpc and CONFIG_IP_NF_MASQUERADE needs to be enabled in the kernel but it doesn't appear to be in gentoo-dev-sources. Apparently the 2.6.x kernel in Fedora Core 2 has it. All the other options needed were there: " For Linux 2.6.x: You must enable (as a module "M" or compiled-in "Y") the following features in your kernel: * "Device Drivers / Networking support / Universal TUN/TAP device driver support" (CONFIG_TUN) * "Device Drivers / Networking support / Networking Options / Network Packet Filtering (replaces ipchains) / IP: Netfilter Configuration / Connection tracking (required for masq/NAT)" (CONFIG_IP_NF_CONNTRACK) * "Device Drivers / Networking support / Networking Options / Network Packet Filtering (replaces ipchains) / IP: Netfilter Configuration / IP tables support (required for filtering/masq/NAT)" (CONFIG_IP_NF_IPTABLES) * "Device Drivers / Networking support / Networking Options / Network Packet Filtering (replaces ipchains) / IP: Netfilter Configuration / MASQUERADE target support" (CONFIG_IP_NF_MASQUERADE)" <--- Missing I tried to manually edit the .config file to add it in and it said: Aurora linux # make && make modules && make modules_install && make install CHK include/linux/version.h scripts/kconfig/conf -s arch/i386/Kconfig # # using defaults found in .config # .config:575: trying to assign nonexistent symbol IP_NF_MASQUERADE SPLIT include/linux/autoconf.h -> include/config/* Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.make menuconfig go to Device Drivers / Networking support / Networking Options / Network Packet Filtering (replaces ipchains) / IP: Netfilter Configuration / MASQUERADE target support 2.
