Re: decipher the secmark number from nf_conntrack/ip_conntrack

What happens to the new /nf(s)_conntrack

If anything, secmark=x be removed. Abusing procfs is deprecated.
No userspace program depends on it.
I've just read the above again. Are you actually suggesting that no program in userspace uses /proc/net/nf_conntrack? If so, you are mistaken my friend!

I use it a lot via 'cat' and Shorewall (via 'shorewall show connections'). I use it for one particular reason - to track SELinux contexts (text, NOT numbers!) on active connections.

So, am I going to see the SELinux context for each connection in text without the need to use conntrack-utils or not (simple 'yes' or 'no' answer will do)?
