I've never seen a config file use past tense before.
Looking at
man conntrackd.conf the
only option containing "grow" is "
NetlinkBufferSizeMaxGrow
th"
However, the "See Also" section points at something claiming to be a manual -
//conntrack-tools.netfilter.org/manual.html - searching for "grow" there returns a single instance, in the sentence
"You can increase the values of SocketBufferSize and SocketBufferSizeMaxGrown."
Searching the netfilter site, reveals
a 2008 commit with the message:
Quote:
doc: fix typo SocketBufferSizeMaxGrowth in example conffiles
This patch replaces SocketBufferSizeMaxGrown by SocketBufferSizeMaxGrowth. Both clauses are still valid but better to use the one that has no typos in the configuration files.

So yes, it's a typo.
You might like to
raise an issue with NetFilter pointing out that the manual.html page is 16 years out of date.
(It might also mean that whatever config file you're looking at is similarly out of date.)
