IIRC, you _can_ find out, though I agree it's rather a hack (with tproxy, you can just use the address as received via recvmsg): getsockopt(fd, SOL_IP, SO_ORIGINAL_DST, &sockaddr, &sizeptr); -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
