FOLLOW THESE STEPS:
===================
Make sure /usr/src/linux contains the kernel headers you're building
against. If /usr/src/linux is an older kernel, set the KERNEL_DIR
environment variable to point to the current kernel sources.
If you forget the above step, a bogus dependency files with a ".d"
extension may be created. If you see messages like:
make: *** No rule to make target `include/linux/netfilter_ipv4/ipt_limit.h',
needed by `iptables.d'. Stop.
then you have these bogus dependency files. Do this:
% make distclean
To build, just do:
% make
If you want to specify alternate directories for installation (instead
of /usr/local/ bin lib man), do this:
% make BINDIR=/usr/bin LIBDIR=/usr/lib MANDIR=/usr/man
% make BINDIR=/usr/bin LIBDIR=/usr/lib MANDIR=/usr/man install
NOTE: make sure you build with at least the correct LIBDIR=
specification, otherwise iptables(8) won't know where to find the
dynamic objects.
