Subject: [PATCH] Remove use of 'mangle' from DNAT/SNAT
Date: Mon, 29 Nov 2004 17:51:53 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20041130015153.GA3703@linuxace.com> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 200 bytes --]

At least one user (via bugzilla) was confused by the use of the word
mangle in the man entries for DNAT and SNAT.  Might as well clarify 
it...trivial patch below.

This closes bugzilla #261.
