I have a CD labeled "Yellow Dog Linux version 2.1 for Apple PowerPC Tasty
Morsels CD" and issued the following commands:
[user@mdvk-036 user]$ find /mnt/cdrom -name *ip*
/mnt/cdrom/YellowDog/ppc/cipe-1.4snap-1.ppc.rpm
/mnt/cdrom/YellowDog/ppc/ipxutils-2.2.0.18-3.ppc.rpm
/mnt/cdrom/YellowDog/SRPMS/cipe-1.4snap-1.src.rpm
[user@mdvk-036 user]$ find /mnt/cdrom/ -name *tabl*
[user@mdvk-036 user]$ find /mnt/cdrom/ -name *net*
/mnt/cdrom/YellowDog/ppc/netscape-4.73-8a.ppc.rpm
/mnt/cdrom/YellowDog/SRPMS/netscape-4.73-8a.src.rpm
[user@mdvk-036 user]$ find /mnt/cdrom/ -name *filter*
[user@mdvk-036 user]$
So, how is the RPM for iptables called? I found one on the Tasty Morsels
from 2.0 - is that recent enough to be used - can it be used with YDL 2.1?
Thanks for any info.
