netfilter hooks: How to compare sk_buff->nh.iph->saddr with a predefined IP

[Eviltime <webmaster@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I want to compare the source address of an incoming packet with a list
of IPs such as:

char *deny[2]={"/x7f/x00/x00/x01", NULL } // 127.0.0.1

i've tried comparing the 2 addresses with this:

	[...]
	if(sb->nh.iph->saddr == *(unsigned int *)deny[0]) {
		printk("ignoring packet\n");
		return NF_DROP;
	}
	[...]

but it doesn't work... where i'm mistaking?

Really thanks
Marco..
