FOLLOW THESE SIMPLE GUIDELINES: ------------------------------- Compiling the source code and putting the files in the right directories: %make install If you are using the CVS code or need your own kernel includes, do this instead (change the include directory to the appropriate one): %make install KERNEL_INCLUDES=/usr/src/linux/include WHAT GETS INSTALLED? -------------------- - The ebtables manual gets installed in /usr/local/man/man8 To put the manual somewhere else, include MANDIR=<> as option on the command line. The Makefile will append /man8/ebtables.8. - ethertypes is by default placed in /etc/, if you want to change this, include ETHERTYPESPATH=<>. - the userspace program ebtables is compiled and the executable is copied by default to /sbin/ebtables. If you want to put the executable somewhere else, include BINPATH=<>. That's all
