FC17 does not include the SCTP kernel module, as it had before (i.e. in FC16 etc.) I can't find the FC17 kernel-modules-extra RPM for it, nor even the FC17 kernel source RPM to compile it myself!

Which brings up an interesting question.....

Error: Nothing to do Yet the rpm is download-able as you've indicated.

Yes... go to the spin download page: http://spins.fedoraproject.org/xfce/#downloads and look at the 'direct download' section? Note that you replied to an existing thread, please post a new post when it's unrelated to an existing thread. Thanks, kevin

Is there a normal place (http/ftp) for downloading the spins? I've been looking around the fedora download page and the only option being pushed is torrents, which are strictly prohibited at where I work. Thank you.

I do not know if kernel-modules-extra is on the DVD ISO, but you can download the package[1] on another machine and install it without internet access. # yum localinstall /path/kernel-modules-extra-3.3.4-5.fc17.x86_64.rpm

(2) My arch is x86_64 as opposed to i686

I was only providing an example. I did not know your CPU arch. SCTP is provided regardless of arch.

(3) My kernel is the default 3.3.4-5 that comes with FC17 x86-64, and I see the one you listed is more recent.

It is provided in kernel-modules-extra for 3.3.4-5. [1] wget http://fedora.mirrors.tds.net/pub/fedora/releases/17/Everything/x86_64/os...

First off, please send plain-text e-mail. The SCTP kernel module is indeed in the kernel-modules-extra package. # yum install kernel-modules-extra /lib/modules/3.3.7-1.fc17.i686/extra/net/sctp/sctp.ko

A couple of issues with that - hopefully not a big deal: (1) The system I am installing to does not have direct Internet access and thus cannot do a 'yum' to an external repository. I can only install what's on the FC17 DVD ISO or via RPM (that I download from a separate machine). (2) My arch is x86_64 as opposed to i686 (3) My kernel is the default 3.3.4-5 that comes with FC17 x86-64, and I see the one you listed is more recent.
