Hi,

I've just updated from iptables 1.4.8 to 1.4.18 (git HEAD to be precise)
and now face some trouble with netmask parsing:

This used to work with 1.4.8:
-A foo -m policy --mode tunnel --dir in --tunnel-src 192.168.123.0/255.255.255.0 -j RETURN

With git HEAD I get:
iptables-restore v1.4.18: policy: bad value for option "--tunnel-src", or out of range (0-32)


This of course works:
-A foo -m policy --mode tunnel --dir in --tunnel-src 192.168.123.0/24 -j RETURN


Any reason why we don't accept the full format anymore?

Cheers,
Thomas

No. Things that used to work have to work indeed. Just sent a patch to
fix it.

Thanks for the report Thomas.

patch seems to work fine (=loads the firewall again).
Thanks for the quick fix.
