Hi,

I would like to ask something about the version of libnfnetlink and libnetfilter_queue. What is the most stable and suitable version of libnfnetlink and libnetfilter_queue for developing the application with netfilter_queue in RHEL 5.2 (Kernel: 2.6.18-92.el5)?

Thank you very much!

Regards,

Jacky Luk

You should use latest releases for the maximum stability. They are backward compatible with older kernel.

From a functionnal point of view, you should at least use libnetfilter_queue-0.0.15 and libnfnetlink-0.0.30. They provide interface name resolution, that you may want to use in your application.
