Greetings

I have been working on userspace nat via NFQUEUE i have it working but 
something does not make
sense to me.

the code below is to build the conntrack and attach the nat attributes.

i cannot get it working unless i use the following

nfct_set_attr_u8(ct, ATTR_TCP_STATE, TCP_CONNTRACK_ESTABLISHED);

the documentation and examples suggest this is not correct however this way
it works no other options function.

as the documentation is not extensive perhaps someone will be able to 
comment on this.

am i correct to only use this for TCP connections.

the code for this is available @ 
http://pbx.distrotech.co.za/svn/taploop/trunk/ in the framework directory.

Regards

Greg
