Description Konstantin Pavlov 2006-07-01 14:56:14 MSD

Trying to setup a connlimit rule on iptables-1.3.5-alt3 under x86_64 sisyphus.
That's what i got:

# iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp --syn --dport 21 -m connlimit --connlimit-above 3
--connlimit-mask 32 -j REJECT
iptables: Unknown error 18446744073709551615

Comment 1 Dmitry V. Levin 2006-07-01 16:38:50 MSD

Looks like
1. error reporting on x86-64 is bogus;
2. required kernel module is not loaded.

Comment 2 Sergey Vlasov 2006-07-01 22:18:18 MSD

The 'connlimit' match is not yet available in upstream kernels and does not seem
to be planned for 2.6.18.

Comment 3 Mike Lykov 2008-06-05 15:03:43 MSD

are there any updates? in Server 4 module connlimit isn't work. 
any plans?
