Hello, which chains are passed from packets, generated from a local process with a local ip as destination(not 127.0.0.1, but ip-address of a local network interface). Is it OUTPUT -> POSTROUTING -> PREROUTING -> INPUT, or is it directly? my network interface has 5 ip-adresses. If have 2 daemons (say A and B) running on 2 different local ip-Addresses (ip-A and IP-B) on the same port. It's not possible to run a deamon on 2 or more addresses. so i need to forward ip-c, ip-d and ip-e to ip-a. ip-a -> A ip-b -> B ip-c -> ip->a -> A ip-d -> ip->a -> A ip-e -> ip->a -> A it works allready from packets from remote hosts (with dnat and prerouting), but not from local packets. to use dnat for local packets in the output chain i read that i must update the kernel and install a new version of iptables. but i am not sure, if this will work, because the packets are for a local ip-address and not for a remote destination.
