Me too. Never patched a kernel before, so it was exciting. Compiled lots. =
Never patched tho.
Pretty painless.
Anyway, the reason I did it was that I updated my 7.2 installation with =
the latest kernel.
I noticed that under 7.1, the iptables 1.2.3 log directive --log-level =
info caused a problem.
A friend and I looked at changelog and saw that 1.2.5 might resolve this, =
and it did.
Plus I learned a few things. Worth it right there.=20
Anyway, I am not seeing any more logs than I did before the distro change, =
kernel upgrade, and patch up to 1.2.5.=20
What -j LOG lines are you using in your script?
can you provide examples of what you saw before and what you're seeing =
now?

I sucessfully patched the kernel with iptables-1.2.5 ( YAY ! )
but there's a lot of logs it produced now, kinda hard to see which one is =
my=20
customized and which one it produced by itself.
It's never occured when I use standard iptables from kernel-modules (=20
iptables-1.2.4, debian woody ) unless i stated -j LOG explicitly in the=20
firewall script.
I assumed that maybe I turn on the "Network Packet Filtering Debuging"=20
options in my "make config" in kernel recompiling, so I went back there =
and=20
try make menuconfig again using the ".config" i've created before, but =
turned=20
out that it is NOT selected ...
Any other options I might be overlook ?
Thank you.
