RE: Do nfnl_query and nfnl_catch are blocking fuctions ?

Yes,
	I am using libnetfilter_conntrack for adding expected connection
through Application Proxies. Now, sometimes my proxy hangs and when I do gdb
on the core generated, recvmsg call is in waiting mode.

	I have changed libnetfilter_conntrack slightly to make it single
socket for my Proxy. I do nfct_open at time of proxy start, do
nfct_create_expectation every time request comes and nfct_close when proxy
ends.

Rgds,
Nishit Shah.

What kind of behaviour are you observing? Please elaborate.
