I understand that, but there is more documentation on libipq. Plus there is that one, lonely piece of (GPL'd) sample code. There is nothing on libnetfilter_queue anywhere, as far as I can tell. I am also aware of the libipq "compatibility layer" in libnetfilter_queue and I have tried working with it on an Ubuntu 6.06 VM but got nowhere (I switched over to the vanilla Etch VM primarily to simplify things). Since I'm getting more results with libipq I have decided to "go where the docs are" regardless of what wonderful things are coming in the fourth age. I had a lot of pain during the dawn of the last two ages (and I didn't even jump into the 3rd age until about 10PM that evening). I guess it's always darkest before the dawn. If you have any pointers on getting the compatibility layer to work, I'm all ears. Or if there is some libnetfiler-queue sample code "out there" that I missed, please let me know. Thank you for your reply.
