Unfortunately, I can't install iptables properly:
The installation command runs through normally, but then I get an error.
Tried on a virgin flashed System: openpli-8.0-rc on Maxytec Multibox Combo.
Mentioned in passing, not problem relevant: on first uprgade process there are some errors as well:
opkg update && opkg upgrade
Collected errors:
* remove_obsolesced_files: unlinking /lib/modules/4.4.35/extra/hi_play.ko failed: No such file or directory.
* opkg_install_pkg: Failed to determine obsolete files from previously installed maxytec-dvb-modules-multibox
Back to iptables, the opkg install iptables result looks pretty normal: https://pastebin.com/XGR2sYmR
But even a simple listing right after installation gives me following error:
root@multibox:~# iptables -L
iptables v1.8.3 (legacy): can't initialize iptables table `filter': Table does not exist (do you need to insmod?)
Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded.
Further, the module can't be found:
root@multibox:~# modprobe ip_tables
root@multibox:~# modinfo ip_tables
modinfo: ERROR: Module ip_tables not found.
root@multibox:~# lsmod

In another forum they wrote this happens because of missing kernel modules?
I saw on github that CONFIG_NETFILTER_XTABLES is activated, but all the other CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_... are not.
According to that it is not possible to use iptables on this box?
Or did I just forget anything?
