I am running cpanel with fedora core 1 and I tried to install apf today ( by http://www.webhostgear.com/61.html)


when I try to start apf I get this error


iptables v1.2.9: invalid portrange (min > max)
Try `iptables -h' or 'iptables --help' for more information.

any ideas?

i think I solved the the problem, I put in the wrong port range

now I have another problem, how can I enable pinging with the latest version of apf?

can anyone help with this problem? all i need to know is how to enable pinging. I tried what it said on the how to, but that file is not found.

Latest development version:
http://www.r-fx.org/downloads/apf-0.9.4-3.tar.gz

Enable ping by adding 8 to IG_ICMP_TYPES="" in conf.apf

hm.. this is weird, I removed the old version of apf I had and pinging was still disabled. Then I installed the new version which rfxn kindly showed :) and it still disabled pinging. Do you think this could be a iptables problem? and if so, how could I fix it?

Did you do what rfxn said.

Enable ping by adding 8 to IG_ICMP_TYPES="" in conf.apf

If you did this with the new version it should work.
