-j QUEUE: libnetfilter_queue or libipq ?

Post by MikeBerger » 2019/01/13 22:03:30

I am installing iptables on my new CentOS 7.6 . To process my numerous "-j QUEUE", in the past on other systems I have used either
libnetfilter_queue or libipq. Which should I use now? Also, what yum commands should I use to get the software?
Thanks for your help.
Mike.

Running yum provides '*/libipq*' '*/libnetfilter_queue*' only lists files belonging to libnetfilter_queue and libnetfilter_queue-devel so I think you have a Hobson's choice.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.
