Hi!

I need to include a counter in my new nat target function (basically to 
know how many connections for a particular target are curently 
registered in the nat table). I had first though about including a 
simple integer in my targinfo, but I just noticed that it is passed to 
the target function as a const. Thus it does not work.
Does someone has a good advice on where I can store my variable? Can I 
use the void *userdata ? (I do not really know to what it points).

Thanks,

          Emmanuel
