ReadyNasOs 6.0.x Kernel, module compilation for iptables
Hello, I have a Ultra2 Nas under ReadyNas OS 6.0.8. I would like to compile some specific kernel modules required by iptable as they are not available in the OS. However all the tutorials I found a...
I have to agree with many other forum members: We need a full implementation (kernel) of iptables which includes nat, conntrack, state and other features. This hamstrung iptables implementation is very rudimentary and doesn't align with current security standards and practices.
Downloading the source and modding the code might be an option but it seems backwards and is counter-productive to the extensive dev-test-release cycle NETGEAR is already spending.
I have tried to implement squid3 as a proxy using 6.2.2 and due to the limitation of iptables I cannot succeed because the nat option is not supported.
NETGEAR: Lets get ahead of the "security-curve" and do a full iptables implementation so we can make it the best NAS available.
