Hi,

I would like to ask a question about the 
libnetfilter_queue. Is the libnetfilter_queue thread-safe? 
Would the API of libnetfilter_queue cause the kernel crash 
under multi-threading environment? I am using the Red Hat 
Enterprise Linux 5.2 with the kernel version 
2.6.18-92.el5PAE to develop my own program. The version of 
libnetfilter_queue is 0.0.16 and the version of 
libnfnetlink is 0.0.40.

Thanks and Regards,

Jacky Luk
