Help compiling modules on ReadyOS 6.4.2 (required to route eth1 over tun1)
Hi all, I'm wanted to route traffice from eth1 over a VPN connection via openvpn. I've installed and configured openvpn and all is good however I believe I need support for netfilter in iptables ...

I vaguely rememer you have to add ".RNx64_64.2.2" in some Makefile to get the correct vermagic (or something else starting with RNx64_, check an existing 'native' module.
From the dvb_core module I compiled for 6.3.5:
/lib/modules/3.12.43.RNx86_64.2.2/kernel/drivers/media/dvb-core # modinfo dvb-core.ko
filename: dvb-core.ko
license: GPL
author: Marcus Metzler, Ralph Metzler, Holger Waechtler
description: DVB Core Driver
depends:
vermagic: 3.12.43.RNx86_64.2.2 SMP mod_unload modversions
parm: dvbdev_debug:Turn on/off device debugging (default:off).

Copying the readynas config I get vermagic of
/lib/modules/4.1.16.x86_64.1/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter# modinfo iptable_na t.ko filename: iptable_nat.ko license: GPL depends: nf_nat_ipv4 vermagic: 4.1.16.x86_64.1 SMP mod_unload modversions
which seems to match the existing netconsole module which I can load

I really wonder where you get the 3.x kernel version from. This looks like either you used the wrong sources for compiling the dvb modules or the wrong kernel source tree. Most likely you did a compile of the dvb modules on an older kernel and the build process just remembered (by using symlinks) where the kernel sources used back then where located. So I think it's not a point where one should start the research. Did you run a diff of the kernel configs before and after making your changes as I suggested?

I have yet to do this, I get very little time to play with my NAS :-(
Also, please don't confuse the reply from IcyK informing of the vermagic check, my modules have the correct version
4.1.16.x86_64.1
thanks.

I highly doubt that, it came with the GPL sources of 6.3.5 (that I have running on some Ultra units). But that's off-topic. ;)
TonyKL: sorry I can't be of further help...

6.3.5 used an older kernel, so that would explain it.
