No /proc/net/ip_conntrack folder in Debian Sarge
Hi.
My status = linux newbie :) I would like to know how many connection to port 80 and a ftp port. I have used a perlscript that worked on my other Debian box. But on this new one its says: /proc/net/ip_conntrack: No such file or directory. Why isn't this folder in my new setup? Used script: Code:
netstat="/bin/netstat" |
The whole /proc is a virtual filesystem, so it doesn't "really" exist. It's often described as merely a "peek hole into the kernel", so if you don't have ip_conntrack module enabled in iptables (which is a kernel module, in addition to the iptables software you install) you probably don't have that "folder" (btw. Linux doesn't use "folders", it talks about "directories", and in this case it's a virtual directory) at all.
So, make sure you have ip_conntrack module loaded into your kernel. If it's not builtin (as it seems it's not), try Code:
modprobe ip_conntrack |
