Hello together,  
I am currently trying to install rancher server on a single node rke. I have centos 8.2 minimal installed. Unfortunately, there seem to not exist the. following kernel modules:

module nf\_conntrack\_ipv4 is not present  
module nf\_nat\_ipv4 is not present  
module nf\_nat\_masquerade\_ipv4 is not present

Can someone tell me how I can install them? Or are they not needed anymore with centos 8.2? As centos appears on the compatibility list I am wondering if I realy need another kernel or add additional kernel modules.

and the following components are build into the kernel rather than as modules. I assume this will not be an issue?  
module x\_tables is not present  
module xt\_tcpudp is not present

Thanks for directions.

Best regards,  
Christoph

centos 8.2 uses nftables, but installation of docker seems to work without these modules
