Seems still broken.

I built vanilla(apart from nth) 2.6.10, new iptables 1.2.11 + 
pom-200400621 with runme extra only said y to nth.

I see -

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT 817 packets, 103K bytes)
  pkts bytes target     prot opt in     out     source 
destination
    15  1260 MARK       all  --  *      eth0    0.0.0.0/0 
0.0.0.0/0           every 2th packet #0 MARK set 0x1
    15  1260 MARK       all  --  *      eth0    0.0.0.0/0 
0.0.0.0/0           every 2th packet #1 MARK set 0x2

Chain POSTROUTING (policy ACCEPT 817 packets, 103K bytes)
  pkts bytes target     prot opt in     out     source 
destination
     0     0            all  --  *      eth0    0.0.0.0/0 
0.0.0.0/0           MARK match 0x1
    15  1260            all  --  *      eth0    0.0.0.0/0 
0.0.0.0/0           MARK match 0x2
[root@amd /home/andy]# cat ./nth-test
iptables -t mangle -A OUTPUT -o eth0 -m nth --counter 1 --every 2 
--packet 0 -j MARK --set-mark 1
iptables -t mangle -A OUTPUT -o eth0 -m nth --counter 1 --every 2 
--packet 1 -j MARK --set-mark 2
iptables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -m mark --mark 1
iptables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -m mark --mark 2

Any Ideas anyone?

TIA

Andy.
