Red face iptables


Hi
Is there any document that explain the source code of iptables?
Reading and understanding this code is very time consuming.

Yes....yes it is.

If you want an understanding of the source code, you'll have to read it. If you want a "how it works" document, the documentation that comes with it should provide you with a good start. Google can give you lots more help, too.

Hi dear lxa2xjj
unfortunately this document isn't English and it is persian.
Ashkan is a persian man and when I understood it , I saw this document and inform him.
if I find an English document for iptables,I send it for you surely.

Best Wishes,
Amir Soltani Nezhad
