Something like this: Chain INPUT: -m mark --mark 0 -j NOT_QUEUED -m mark --mark 1 -j BACK_FROM_QUEUE Chain NOT_QUEUED: ... rules ... -j NFQUEUE [ nfqueue: return NF_REPEAT, set mark = 1 ] Chain BACK_FROM_QUEUE: ... further rules ... -- 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
