conntrack does not display bytes and packets

conntrack does not display bytes and packets

[Vieri]

Hi, 

Since I updated my kernel to 2.6.36 and 2.6.37, /proc/net/nf_conntrack and conntrack -L do NOT show "packets" and "bytes" even for ASSURED / REPLIED connections. 

It seems that both of these data (bytes and packets) have disappeared from conntrack/netfilter. 

Am I missing something? Is there an option somewhere to restore earlier behavior (previous kernels/netfilter would always display both bytes and packets)?

Example when opening google: 

ipv4     2 tcp      6 431999 ESTABLISHED src=10.215.144.48 dst=209.85.147.104 sport=52531 dport=80 src=209.85.147.104 dst=10.215.144.48 sport=80 dport=52531 [ASSURED] mark=0 secmark=0 use=2 

ipv4     2 tcp      6 431999 ESTABLISHED src=10.215.144.48 dst=209.85.147.104 sport=52533 dport=80 src=209.85.147.104 dst=10.215.144.48 sport=80 dport=52533 [ASSURED] mark=0 secmark=0 use=2 

ipv4     2 tcp      6 431999 ESTABLISHED src=10.215.144.48 dst=209.85.147.104 sport=52530 dport=80 src=209.85.147.104 dst=10.215.144.48 sport=80 dport=52530 [ASSURED] mark=0 secmark=0 use=2 

ipv4     2 tcp      6 431998 ESTABLISHED src=10.215.144.48 dst=209.85.147.104 sport=52532 dport=80 src=209.85.147.104 dst=10.215.144.48 sport=80 dport=52532 [ASSURED] mark=0 secmark=0 use=2 

Previous kernel/netfilter would show something like this: 

tcp      6 73 TIME_WAIT src=10.215.144.7 dst=209.85.147.104 sport=35407 dport=80 packets=15 bytes=1386 src=209.85.147.104 dst=192.168.92.2 sport=80 dport=35407 packets=11 bytes=10180 [ASSURED] mark=1 use=1 

(note "bytes" and "packets") 

Thanks, 

Vieri

I think you should set net.netfilter.nf_conntrack_acct=1 to enable conntrack accounting.

Thanks Oleg.
