From ebd4a00b74aa99ed25841a235fe79b1462baea7f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mart Frauenlob Date: Wed, 10 Apr 2013 06:48:49 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] extensions: libxt_REDIRECT: rename IPv4 manpage and tell about IPv6 support This patch renames libipt_REDIRECT.man to libxt_REDIRECT.man thus informing about the IPv6 version. Also the list of valid protocols for port mapping is updated to: tcp, udp, dccp and sctp.
