[Devil-linux-develop] [fmII] iptables 1.2.9rc1 released (Release candidates branch)

[<no...@fr...>]

This email is to inform you about the release of version '1.2.9rc1' of
'iptables' through freshmeat.net. All URLs and other useful information
can be found at

    http://freshmeat.net/projects/iptables/

The changes in this release are as follows:
Memory leaks were fixed in ip(6)tables-save/restore. The printout of
odd length netmasks was fixed in ip6tables. iptables-save now works
properly with condition match, fuzzy match, (inverted) MAC match, the
LOG target, and mport match. Invalid port ranges are now checked for
by ip6tables UDP match. The ipq_id_t definition in libipq was fixed
on "real" 64bit/64bit architectures. Endianness bugs related to
ipv6_prefix_length in libip6tc were fixed.  

Project description:
iptables is built on top of netfilter: the new packet alteration
framework for Linux 2.4. It is an enhancement on ipchains, and is
used to control packet filtering, Network Address Translation
(masquerading, portforwarding, transparent proxying), and special
effects.
