APF Problems

[Hektor]

I can't start APF. I get these errors:

eth0: error fetching interface information: Device not found
apf(19256): {glob} activating firewall
eth0: error fetching interface information: Device not found
eth0: error fetching interface information: Device not found
Opening /proc/modules: No such file or directory
apf(19301): {glob} unable to load iptables module (ip_tables), aborting.
apf(19256): {glob} firewall initalized

I'm pretty sure my interface is on eth0. Any ideas what the problem is?

Looks like you have the wrong device setup in /etc/apf/conf.apf file. If you don't know what device you use search your log files /var/log/messages for "eth". You should find something like "eth1" or "eth2". If not, and you are using wireless, search for "wlan".

As root you can also do:

# ifconfig

Which will also list your devices.
