iptables v1.3.5 unable to initialize table filter on CentOS 5.9
When trying to restart iptables I'm getting the following output:
/etc/init.d/iptables restart
Unloading iptables modules: [ OK ]
Applying iptables firewall rules: iptables-restore v1.3.5: iptables-restore: unable to initializetable 'filter'
Error occurred at line: 1
Try `iptables-restore -h' or 'iptables-restore --help' for more information.
[FAILED]
I've checked the filter module with the command "modprobe /lib/modules/2.6.18-348.el5/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/iptable_filter.ko" which returns "FATAL: Module /lib/modules/2.6.18_348.el5/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/iptable_filter.ko not found."
The error is odd because it's referencing "2.6.18_348.el5" (with an underscore) instead of "2.6.18-348.el5" (with a hyphen).
I tried creating a symlink of the folder name with the underscore to the one with the hyphen (the real one that exists with the modules) but saw no change.
