<p>While not all of the options that I've selected are required, they should
be sufficient for most applications. Here's an excerpt from the corresponding
.config file (Note: If you are running a kernel older than 2.4.17, be sure
to select CONFIG_NETLINK and CONFIG_RTNETLINK):</p>

<p>Note that I have built everything I need into the kernel except for the
FTP connection tracking and NAT modules. I have also run successfully with
all of the options selected above built as modules:</p>
