   Today try to execute modprobe ip_nat_ftp command on terminal to configure our new install Fedora 12, but the error message from the modprobe command say that "WARNING: Deprecated config file /etc/modprobe.conf, all config files belong into /etc/modprobe.d/."... stuck there for a while.. do some search on the net and come out to the solutions that the modprobe.conf no logger need on Fedora 12, so we need to rename the modprobe.conf configuration file in order to make modprobe error message "WARNING: Deprecated config file /etc/modprobe.conf, all config files belong into /etc/modprobe.d/." disappear.  The step by step below show how to rename the modprobe.conf as the solution for the error above.
