Subject: -j DNAT doesn't accept nonnumerical port
Date: Thu, 25 Aug 2011 16:31:28 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4E565CC0.6050207@mejor.pl> (raw)

Hello!
Iptables accept such line without problem:
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp  --dport pop3 -j DNAT 
--to-destination 1.2.3.4:25

Destination port is defined by word. So i wanted to use use the same 
trick in DNAT but i've got:
# iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp  --dport pop3 -j DNAT 
--to-destination 1.2.3.4:smtp
iptables v1.4.12: Port `smtp' not valid

Is it intentional behavior of iptables? I can't see any info about it in 
man.

Regards,
Marcin
