Description

There is no dstlimit netfilter kernel module in the current RHEL-4 kernel and ipt_dstlimit.h in not part of glibc-kernheaders. Please apply to kernel and glibc-kernheaders for inclusion of dstlimit, then reapply to iptables. BTW: dstlimit is not part of the standard iptables build. Request moved to glibc-kernheaders. Can we get the dstlimit included in iptables? Not a lot of point in that unless we add the feature to our kernel. There are actually two requests here: dstlimit support in kernel, and to have glibc-kernheader headerfile for inclusion in U6. This bug is to track the kernel header file inclusion. So clone this RFE for dstlimit support in the kernel, and clone this REF to include libipt_dstlimit into iptables package. Adding the FutureFeature Keyword. As this is a feature request we will need a proper business justification to add it to RHEL4. At this point the threshhold will be very high, so PM NAKing for now. Will need to be re-requested. PM NACK Additional information: Upstream the module has been deprecated and replaced by hashlimit. That is in RHEL5 Product Management has reviewed and declined this request. You may appeal this decision by reopening this request. |
