Hi there, i’m trying to emulate :: iptables -A INPUT -t filter -p tcp -j NFQUEUE –queue-num $queueNum where $queueNum is any int so far I have static int createFilters(int baseNumber) { /* * input filter looks like this * iptables -A INPUT -t filter -p tcp -j NFQUEUE –queue-num 5 * sudo iptables -L INPUT * Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT) * target prot opt source destination * NFQUEUE tcp — anywhere anywhere NFQUEUE num 5 */ const char *table = “filter”; const char *chain = “INPUT”; const char *target = “QUEUE”; struct { struct ipt_entry entry; struct xt_NFQ_info { u_int16_t queueNum; } target; } entry; struct xtc_handle *h; int ret = 1; h = iptc_init (table); if (!h) { fprintf (stderr, “Could not init IPTC library: %s\n”, iptc_strerror (errno)); goto out; } memset (&entry, 0, sizeof (entry)); /* target */ entry.target.queueNum = XT_ALIGN (baseNumber); entry.entry.target_offset = sizeof (struct ipt_entry); entry.entry.next_offset = entry.entry.target_offset + sizeof(entry.target); if (!iptc_append_entry (chain, (struct ipt_entry *) &entry, h)) { fprintf (stderr, “Could not insert a rule in iptables (table %s): %s\n”, table, iptc_strerror (errno)); goto out; } if (!iptc_commit (h)) { fprintf (stderr, “Could not commit changes in iptables (table %s): %s\n”, table, iptc_strerror (errno)); goto out; } ret = 0; out: if (h) iptc_free (h); return ret; } but it won’t commit. Any thoughts?
