kernel compilation problem (openbsd 2.8)

[Francia Peralta]

Hi,

I have a problem compiling my new kernel. I appended the following options to my new kernel.

    option IPFILTER

    option IPFILTER_LOG

when I executed the config -s command. I got the following message

...already have options "IPFILTER"
...already have options "IPFILTER_LOG"
***stop
I edited my new kernel and commented out those two options, I was able to recompile my new kernel. I checked the IPFilter and the log, it's not working. So, how can I include the ipfilter option on my kernel?

Thanks for the help in advance.

in what way is it 'not working'?
what did you do to 'check' ipf?

if config reports the options are already set, that is probably because
of the include statement in your kernel config
ie. include "../../../conf/GENERIC"
in that file (/usr/src/sys/conf/GENERIC), those options are already set

seems like you have an other problem...
