My setup requires that i change the source port of some connections (udp port 500) and i have the above problem. If i drop the initial packet of a connection, does it still get an entry in conntrack ? As an example, i want to snat the udp packets from 192.168.1.2 port 5444 to come from 192.168.1.2 port 500. If i have a rule that blocks this connection, insert the nat rule first and allow the traffic afterwards, will this work ?? > Regards > Henrik > Thanks! --arne _________________________________________________ Versendet über Webmail der HAW Hamburg http://www.haw-hamburg.de/webmail
