Pablo, Just a little more thought, this happened when my application attempted to create a NEW queue, while in kernel packet queue overrun situation. And after calling the nfq_create_queue there was no return from it, and only error message generation in the loop inside the libnetfilter_queue library. Looks like not a very proper behaviour. Am I missing something? With best regards, Anton.
