Hi Amit, Sounds strange, and seems similar to one of my previous problems: packets caught by libipq, modified, and reinjected by libnet, bypass the POST ROUTING hook. (I suppose your modified dst address is not of the local machine, otherwise the routing process will pass the packets back to the LOCAL IN hook without going to POST ROUTING I think.) And are you sure these modified packets are sent to the wire? Jee > > > hi, > > i have made an application that reads using libipq functions, and a > kernel module which delivers packet to it.
