Hello,
after an upgrade of iptables from version 1.4.3.2 to 1.4.16.3, some
rules doesn't work anymore.
e.g. all rules with protocol UDP an port information:
#iptables -A INPUT -p udp -i eth0 --dport 67 --sport 68 -j ACCEPT
#iptables v1.4.16.3: Port "67" does not resolve to anything.
If I replace the port with the resolving name defined in /etc/services,
all rules will be accepted:
#iptables -A INPUT -p udp -i eth0 --dport bootps --sport bootpc -j ACCEPT
I saw a "getportbyname" in the source code - is it possible to
deactivate this "feature"?
I would like to still use numbers instead of names, because if there are
some special portforwarding rules in my network, it is not guaranteed
that there is an entry in /etc/services for that port.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
