i don't see any module named ipp2p anywhere in your post... the error you get might very well mean exactly what it says (that there is no match by that name) if this is the case... what process did you follow when installing the ipp2p thing?? i assume it went something like:
- apply ipp2p patch to kernel source...
- configure kernel, selecting the "M" for the ipp2p...
- recompile kernel/modules...
- boot new kernel...
- recompile iptables...
is that kinda like what you did??
or are you positive that the debian kernel already comes with this thing??

Rep:
well...
firstly, the first time i used ipp2p was on a gibraltar live cd (gibraltar.at)
then i tried using it on my old firewall, running debian testing kernel 2.6.8
i did not need any additional kernel modules/patches, everything was there after a simple apt-get install kernel-image-2.6.8-1-686 :-P
for some reason this does not seem to be the case for 2.6.12 and above! i have no idea why. so i thought perhaps somebody here might have had the same prob
if ipp2p desperatly requires a kernel modules, then i shal try to get the kernel sources, patch and recompile.
still wellcoming any comments.
thank you win32sx for your thoughts. it makes sence and i hope it will get me further in getting ipp2p to work. i shall post further results here...
