hi!! iptables -t nat -L shows me that PREROUTING, POSTROUTING nad OUTPUT chains are queuing the pkts to my application ...moreover, i am getting the first ppkt in prerouting chain.. Paridhi DId you use `iptables -N QUEUE` ? Your QUEUE table would only work for tables in the "filter", so it only works for INPUT, FORWARD and OUTPUT and not the table of "nat" table. For some reason I couldn't create a QUEUE which different tables could cross over.. ie. -t nat can't -j to a QUEUE which is created in -t filter.... get it.. -----Original Message----- From: netfilter-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:netfilter-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Paridhi Bansal Sent: Wednesday, June 18, 2003 7:39 PM To: netfilter@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: help iptables queuing HI!! I am using RedHat linux 7.3 with iptablesv1.2.5..I am using iptables queuing to get the packets to my application...I have used thefollowing iptables' commands: iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -j QUEUE iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -j QUEUE iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -j QUEUE iptables -A INPUT -j QUEUE But instead of getting all the packets,i just get first packet of every connection.For example, just first packet of TCP telnet, FTP connection (with SYN bit set and ACK not set )and not the subsequent packets.Why is this so????? Can somebody help me with the explanation of this?????? -- __________________________________________________________ Sign-up for your own FREE Personalized E-mail at Mail.com http://www.mail.com/?sr=signup CareerBuilder.com has over 400,000 jobs.
