Hi, I have installed CSF on my VPS and when I try and start it I get, anyone know what going on and how to fix it, or pass info on to my host. iptables: Unknown error 18446744073709551615 LOG tcp opt -- in * out * 0.0.0.0/0 -> 0.0.0.0/0 limit: avg 30/min burst 5 LOG flags 0 level 4 prefix `Firewall: *TCP_IN Blocked* ' Error: iptables command [/sbin/iptables -v -A LOGDROPIN -p tcp -m limit --limit 30/m --limit-burst 5 -j LOG --log-prefix 'Firewall: *TCP_IN Blocked* '] failed, at line 211 Full ready out Restarting csf...

This might be related to the fact that your VPS' kernel lacks some functionality

Hi, My VPS host has said, they have activated every available iptables module on the node and restarted my VPS but I get the same error. Any other ideas ?

lol.. never mind. I see you have. Try posting on the configserver forum.

Hi, Thanks for the replies so far. Yep, already posted on CSF Forum: http://forum.configserver.com/showthread.php?t=1468

This is most probably a problem with the IPTables on the host node. I have seen this error being solved by enabling the IPTables modules. Cheers

Hi, The problem is the Host said they have activated every available iptables module on the node and restarted my VPS, but the error continues. I did give them a link to the CSF forum which had a list of modules that need to be active. Any ideas ?
