For those of you who love being on the bleeding edge, you can run
the latest development code by extracting it from the CVS. For that to
work, you need to have the same kernel/iptables that the current CVS
tree is using (you can check this by having a look at file tags through
the CVS
browser). To be honest, our cvs is not so bleeding edge anymore.
You will soon be able to pull IP Personality from a bitkeeper tree
somewhere on the net. Meanwhile you can check for updates in our
patches section.
In order to use the CVS, you need to log in to the anonymous
repository as follows:
$ export CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@cvs.ippersonality.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/ippersonality
Then login (no password, just press enter):
$ cvs login
(Logging in to anonymous@cvs.ippersonality.sourceforge.net)
CVS password:
There are two ways to use the CVS directly:
- Either by checking out the patched trees over regular trees. This
has the advantage that you can run a cvs update in the
checkouted trees to keep up to date but it needs more bandwith.
This can be performed with the following steps :
- Checkout the patched kernel source subtrees:
$ cd /path/to/linux-kernel/
$ rm -fr net/
$ cvs -z3 co net
$ cd include/
$ rm -fr linux/netfilter_ipv4/
$ cvs -z3 co linux/netfilter_ipv4
Checkout the patched iptables:
$ cvs co iptables
Or by building patches, which needs less bandwith:
- Checkout the mkpatch script from the misc directory,
or download it from here.
- Run it as follows to get a patch for kernel version 2.4.18 :
$ sh mkpatch -z3 rdiff -lu -rLinux-2_4_18 -rHEAD> ippersonality-2.4.18.diff
To get an iptables version 1.2.2 patch, just run:
$ cvs -z3 rdiff -u -riptables-1_2_2 -rHEAD iptables> iptables-1.2.2.diff
