As you may have seen in my earlier rfc email, I'm interested in something similar to the condition match. I'm not sure whether the best approach is to create a CONDITION target where we can set the condition variable in the iptables itself or if it is better to create a new "variable match" and an accompanying "VARIABLE target" that keeps the variables in memory, instead of using procfs. Any suggestions? -- Cheers, Luca.
