Why can ip_conntrack be interpreted as nf_conntrack?

Hello.

The ip_conntrack, ip_nat_ftp, ip_conntrack_ftp have been renamed to nf_conntrak, nf_nat_ftp and nf_conntrack_ftp.

Further, I cannot find ip_... modules, there are only nf_... modules.

But I can successfully issue "modprobe ip_conntrack", after that, with "lsmod", I see the nf_conntrack loaded.

How can "modprobe" interpret ip_conntrack as nf_conntrack.

Thanks.

Hi,

Can you control /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf file ?

Hi, hasanakgoz.

I wonder why "modprobe" can interpret ip_conntrack as nf_conntrack (There not exist ip_conntrack module at all).
This seems not to be related with blacklist.conf.

The following is content of /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf

#
# Listing a module here prevents the hotplug scripts from loading it.
# Usually that'd be so that some other driver will bind it instead,
# no matter which driver happens to get probed first. Sometimes user
# mode tools can also control driver binding.
#
# Syntax: see modprobe.conf(5).
#

# watchdog drivers
blacklist i8xx_tco

# framebuffer drivers
blacklist aty128fb
blacklist atyfb
blacklist radeonfb
blacklist i810fb
blacklist cirrusfb

You're right I got it wrong. IPv4 support your system available? ip_conntrack is the old IPv4-only implementation.
