Changes for version 0.17 - 2009-10-23

  • This version is only compatible with iptables 1.4.1.
  • Its not compatible with 1.4.2 and 1.4.3, because there are some segfault issues when comparing the IPTABLES_VERSION variable (in the dynamic loadable modules) between iptables versions, 1.4.1 and 1.4.2, and also between 1.4.2 and 1.4.3. It has been fixed from version 1.4.3.2 and beyond (see iptables upstream git commit c4edfa63eda06).
  • This is the first version to support iptables 1.4.x, more will be created shortly, for supporting 1.4.2 and 1.4.3.
  • This version also removes the work around for exit() problem, done in release 0.13. Its still a problem, but its too intrusive to the iptables.c code.
