libipt_time.so Error for time matching in iptable rules

Hi,

While I was appending a new chain rule using time match as following,

Code:

[root@Wazirkutz ~]# iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp -m multiport --dport http,https -o eth0 -i eth1 -m time --timestart 03:30 --timestop 04:30 --days Mon,Wed -j REJECT

I got the following error:
iptables v1.3.5: Couldn't load match `time':/lib64/iptables/libipt_time.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

How do I load this module?

Thanks in advance.

Cheers!!

My guess is that this depends on your kernel. I think that the option CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_TIME should be active in the kernel config, otherwise this functionality can't be used.

All times are GMT -5. The time now is 06:20 PM.
