This looks like duplicated effort IMO and, as for now, conntrackd also provides userspace conntrack table dumping without locking the kernel via `conntrackd -i' which is a feature that ulogd does not provide. I'm not sure if the effort is worth, Harald? -- "Los honestos son inadaptados sociales" -- Les Luthiers
