iptables: Unknown error 4294967295
Hi

I am getting the error as mentioned below; the problem arose when I
have changed the data structure of the ipt_entry which stores the rules
and other information. I have changed in the also other appropriate
initialization of the structure in ip_nat_rule and other files.
I have just added one variable of type unsigned int. Can any one have
idea regarding this problem.

Before adding this variable, iptables was working fine.
Can any one help me in this problem.
