I understand this requirement; unfortunately when i polled for features majority of people who emailed back were asking for the other things. I have changed my opinion a little since last time because the netfilter/contracking code now does netlink. I believe this could all be achieved in user space. Infact i have started writting some code - the problem is my time has become intermittent. If i can get someone who can work with me to complete the work, I will be more than happy to get that last bastion of IMQ done. So if you are a fireman willing to be a hero (I guess all firemen want to be heroes, why else would they be firemen?) email me privately and we can get this done. cheers, jamal PS:- i have removed lartc from the list because it bounces my emails and i refuse to subscribe. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
