Subject: iptables 1.4.21, 'recent' bug?
Date: Sat, 7 May 2016 23:26:52 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160507232652.6110bc9d@playground> (raw)
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 22 -m state --state NEW -m recent --mask 255.255.255.0
results in
iptables v1.4.21: unknown option "--mask"
Try `iptables -h' or 'iptables --help' for more information.
Yet iptables -m recent --help includes:
--mask netmask Netmask that will be applied to this recent list.
Looking at the source, the only oddity I see is that struct xt_recent_mtinfo does not contain mask, while struct xt_recent_mtinfo_v1 does contain mask. Is this telling me that --mask used to be, but is no longer, supported? Or is it a bug where a simple patch can fix it?
FWIW, v1.6.0's libxt_recent.c is unchanged.
Thanks,
Neal
