I keep getting an email from my cPanel server, with the following in the email:

Can't find a backend (ipchains or ipfwadm or ipfw or ipf) at
/usr/local/bandmin/IP/Acct.pm line 55.

Could somebody please explain what this means and how to fix it?

Thank You

Make certain iptables is installed (if on Linux). Acct.pm looks in /usr/sbin/iptables for the binary. If iptables is installed, but doesn't place the binary in /usr/sbin/iptables, then create a symlink to that location.
