The netfilter coreteam proudly presents:

    iptables version 1.4.1-rc3

The hopefully final release candidate for 1.4.1. Actually I already wanted to have released 1.4.1 by now, but my notebook broke last week during travel, which caused some delays.

This release candidate includes some minor fixes, manpage updates and a full resync of the kernel header files to fix the build on old systems that don't have all headers or miss the endian annotated types. The header resync is the main reason for having this release candidate since it has some risk of introducing new compilation breakage. So even if you can't do real functional testing, please verify whether it compiles cleanly for you.

Version 1.4.1-rc3 can be obtained from (please note that the webpage hasn't been rebuilt yet, but will be shortly):

http://www.netfilter.org/projects/iptables/downloads.html
ftp://ftp.netfilter.org/pub/iptables/
git://git.netfilter.org/iptables.git

On behalf of the Netfilter Core Team.
Happy testing!

Compiles cleanly on my custom system and a Fedora 8 workstation. I'm glad the xtables version defines made it in, thanks.
