Hi,

I found that If the app that handles NFQUEUE crashed,
all packets goes through that queue got stuck.

Is there a way to prevent that from happening? 
I prefer to let ACCEPT all packets instead of blocking them, possible?

iptables -I INPUT -p icmp -j NFQUEUE --queue-num 0
# If no app handles that queue, no packets could go through
