My hunch is NOT. ASIDE: We _really_ need a way for filters to report hit counts! 2) Since 1:26 is htb default, why is it necessary to '--set-mark 26'? gypsy _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
