conntrack can't delete more conntrack records

conntrack can't delete more conntrack records

[Petr Pisar]

Hello,

I'm trying to remove all conntrack records for one source IP address. If
I specify only source IP address it will fail:

$ conntrack -D -s 10.0.0.179
Operation failed: such conntrack doesn't exist

However removing only one specific record using full trasport
source/destinaton address works:

$ conntrack -D -s 10.0.0.179 -d X.23.55.166 -p tcp --sport 4369 --dport 6881

I'm using latest conntrack-tools and dependend libraries
(conntrack-tools-0.9.6.tar.bz2.sig
libnetfilter_conntrack-0.0.89.tar.bz2.sig
libnfnetlink-0.0.33.tar.bz2.sig).

The only problem I met during compilation of conntrack-tools was about
shaddowing of global declaration which I've worked around by removing -Werror
compilar option:

make[1]: Entering directory `/tmp/conntrack-tools-0.9.6/src'

(I've met this problem twice.)

So, my question is: Can conntrack remove subset of conntrack table? Is it a bug
or a feature?

This is not supported yet but it will in the next release 0.9.7.

Weird. It must be a global declaration of "index" somewhere in the
system, does the patch attached fix your problem?

It will be a feature anytime soon due to popular demand.

Great to hear it.

If somebody would interest in ugly work around, following bash script
does the hard work:

conntrack -L -s "$SRC" | \
        sed  's/\([^ ]*\).*src=\([^ ]*\) dst=\([^ ]*\) sport=\([^ ]*\) dport=\([^ ]*\) src=.*/conntrack -D -s \2 -d \3 -p \1 --sport \4 --dport \5/'| \
        while read; do eval "$REPLY"; done

yes, it's index(3).

Partially. Other problem is:

Another problem is that my compiler looks under /usr/local/include twice and wanr-errors on it.

Don't bother with it. It's an old machine with gcc-3.2 and these issues are
next reason for upgading the system.

Already applied a patch for that, please get a working copy from SVN 
which includes these fixes. Let me know if it's OK for you.

Hi,
I have the same error with the svn version revision 7405 and
with gcc 3.4.6

No, revision 7407 of conntrack-tools, the same error. Actually, svn log
doesn't mention anything about the patch.
