Access to the NAT tables

Hi,

I would like to have access to the NAT tables from the application I am
developing. Do you know of some library I may use to do so? It would be
just like dreaming if it was in Java (hahaha)...

I think a workaround would be to use the "ipchains" commands and parse
their output...but that would be ugly.

Thanx.

Use the iptables commands unless you have a very old kernel; or you
could study the source code of iptables.

Ok. Then I should parse the output...

Thanks.
