<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi all,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I would like to make some modifications to the ipv6
stack in linux kernel 2.4.17.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>As I'll need to do frequent testing and compiling,
it's recommended to compile as a module as it's faster, isn't it?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Do I check the m for the "ipv6 protocol" and
"ipv6 netfilter configuration", and then run "make modules" and place the ipv6.o
file in the /lib/2.4.17/net/ipv6 directory?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>When I run "insmod ipv6", ipv6 is loaded and my
interfaces are assigned link-local ip addresses.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>However, when I run "lsmod", it shows ipv6 used by
-1. Why did it show -1? I can't execute "rmmod ipv6" as it says "ipv6: Device or
resource busy". What should I do to unload the module? </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thank you.</FONT></DIV>
