SMTP Tweak Error

[LampedWeb]

When trying to enable SMTP Tweak, I get an error. /var/log/messages contains:

Feb 26 17:59:30 server01 modprobe: FATAL: Module ip_tables not found.

iptables is clearly loaded and working because I have my own rules in place. lsmod includes xt_owner.

This is on a Xen VPS, CentOS 5.9.

If a fix isn't forthcoming in the near future, can you advise what rules this would implement, and I'll add it to my own firewall scripts.

If there's something I should tell my VPS hosts, please let me know.

Thanks

You do that in CSF?

What is the output of this:

# cd /etc/csf/
# perl csftest.pl

Hi there,

What is your output for
#modprobe ip_tables

Have you recently updated your system? This can happen when certain updates are made to the kernel without a reboot as well.

can you also share which modules your system has loaded by running:
#ls /lib/modules/*/kernel/net/*/netfilter

# cd /etc/csf
-bash: cd: /etc/csf: No such file or directory

# modprobe ip_tables
FATAL: Module ip_tables not found.
