Hi Pablo,

conntrack needs to see defragmented packets, you have to call

This should not be too hard to do - although my thinking says this
should be a separate action.
This also changes the semantics of the raw table in iptables since it
will now see packet with conntrack already attached. So this would
also break -j CT --notrack.
Is there a flag we can check which says a flow is not to be tracked?
Doesnt nf_conntrack_in() fail if --no track is set?
This needs more thinking. I can appreciate the value of calling
conntrack from different points of the packet traversal, but there are
a couple of thing we have to resolve before allowing that.
There is user need for this Pablo - as you can see from what Felix
deployed it seems to be used a lot more wider audience dependency.
What do we need to do to get this to work properly?

cheers,
jamal
