Now, the default up2date config excludes the kernel from updating and I'm running 2.6.5-1.358, I suppose I should let up2date update the kernel as well. Ok, my mistake, I checked /lib/modules/2.6.5-1.358/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/ and the files are there but they all have .ko on the end of the file names, I assume that's normal. And upon further review of modprobe -l I can see that these modules are already loaded as Michael suggests. So maybe I don't need them at all in my script. Thanks, Linn
