Subject: Allow DNPT target from raw table?
Date: Mon, 06 May 2013 04:38:19 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <2531686.RPhsabGAWo@gentoovm> (raw)

Hi all,

Currently, the DNPT target is restricted to the mangle table; this means that 
it is effectively impossible to utilise NPT in tandem with conntrack since it's 
impossible to rewrite the destination prefix prior to conntrack taking a look 
at the skb.

Please consider allowing the use of DNPT from the raw table so that it's 
possible to do prefix translation without having to forego the benefits of 
conntrack.

Kind Regards,
Oliver
