netfilter buglog - Sep 2009 - [Bug 607] New: About NAT translation

http://bugzilla.netfilter.org/show_bug.cgi?id=607

           Summary: About NAT translation
           Product: netfilter/iptables
           Version: linux-2.4.x
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: NAT
        AssignedTo: laforge at netfilter.org
        ReportedBy: kalatre at yahoo.com.tw


In function nf_nat_fn, if a connection belongs to retransmission, then it will
not find nat rules match again (since it has been NATed when the first
connection comes) and call nf_nat_packet function. My question is that if we
set static routing policy such that the connection (the connection belongs to
retransmission) should not be NATed, then it should do NAT rule match again.
However, it will not do this, since the connection belongs to retransmission.
Thank you for any suggestions in advance.

Routing and NAT are independant of each other. Why do you NAT the connection in
the first place if you don't intend to?
