Apparently another small change is needed to compile the module with 3.3 onwards. This patch is a little bit special since I do not have the infrastructure available to even compile time test it. So just drop me a line if it compiles or not.

As usual you can get it here.

Hi!

Thank you for that patch I use since a long time!

Ever thought about pushing it (gently) to mainstream kernel?

It could benefit long time support from the community...

Good morning Fab,

Yes apparently I tried to do this twice but dod not succeed. I think the main problem is that I do not know enough about RTSP code to put this in proper shape (see the known bugs).

Too bad... I suppose nobody implied in kernel dev was interested enough to help with this?

Well the main issue is that since this is not a "mainstream" protocol knowledge is sparse and they seem to have enough work with the existing modules already so I understand why they are reluctant to add yet another module.

What if you were (?) willing to maintain this module by yourself (which is what you usually do) but inside the kernel?

Maybe they wouldn't trust you enough to stay on a long term basis...

Hi,

Was there ever an RTSP conntrack patch for 2.6.18?

In the POM repository perhaps?

Cheers,

Hi Arif,

There was a version for 2.6.18 in the original netfilter repository AFAIR but this one is no longer available/online.

Hello Mike!

I have used this module for a long time now. It have been very useful, so thanks a lot for your work!

I don't know if you noticed but it looks like since kernel 3.3, the module doesn't build anymore.

Any ideas anyone? :)

Fab

Hi Fab,

I have no machine to test this right now but just changing this to NF_NAT_RANGE_MAPS_IPS and NF_NAT_MANIP_DST should do the trick.

Hi Maru,

Thanks for the tip! I also had to change nf_nat_multi_range_compat to nf_nat_ipv4_multi_range_compat...

The built went ok, but I didn't boot the kernel yet.

I'll let you guys know.

Ok,

Please tell me if it works, I'll then update the patch accordingly. I do not want to put a patch online without at least some testing.

Hi,

I tested it this morning, and I didn't notice any problem yet! I think you can update the code.

I also have a patch to include this within the kernel (like old times) if you are interested.

Thanks again
