One of your recent posts on ebtables-users list must have prevent Bart

Have patched applied cleanly to 2.4.22 sources ? I use ebtables for
quite a long time now, and I can assure that both 2.4.20 and 2.4.22
patches apply cleanly on respective kernel source trees.

Have you activate Bridging and ebtables options when configuring your
2.4.22 kernel ?

Have you installed your new built 2.4.22 kernel ?

Is ebtable modules loaded ? What gives you lsmod output ? Have you tried
modprobe ebtables ?


Your last posts make me think you're not very familiar with kernel
patching and building. If so, you should have a look to Kernel HOWTO.
