RE: [squid-users] ip_wccp problems

Try putting it in
/lib/modules/2.4.22 <or where the modules were installed>/kernel/net/ipv4

That's where my ip_wccp modules ended up when I compiled it during kernel
compilation...

The ip_wccp-2_4_18.patch this is available from
http://squid.visolve.com/developments/wccpv2.htm

can be applied to the kernel, and it makes this much, much easier. At least
I've found it so.

Regards,

Steve Fischer

I compiled my own kernel (2.4.22) and the ip_wccp module on my RedHat 9
system as follows

gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.4.22/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes
-Wno-trigraphs -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -fomit-frame-pointer
-pipe -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 -march=i686 -nostdinc -iwithprefix
include -DKBUILD_BASENAME=sched -fno-omit-frame-pointer -c -o ip_wccp.o
ip_wccp.c

So now I have ip_wccp.o which I put in my /lib/modules/ directory, but it
will NOT load to save my life.

-------------------------------------------

[root@localhost linux]# modprobe ip_wccp

version the module was compiled for

Am I missing something here?
