netfilter buglog - Mar 2013 - [Bug 815] New: Cannot jump to custom chain target

https://bugzilla.netfilter.org/show_bug.cgi?id=815

           Summary: Cannot jump to custom chain target
           Product: iptables
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: x86_64
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P5
         Component: iptables
        AssignedTo: netfilter-buglog at lists.netfilter.org
        ReportedBy: mrvamarek at yahoo.com
   Estimated Hours: 0.0


When I execute the following:

$> iptables -N test
$> iptables -t raw -A PREROUTING -j test

I get:

iptables v1.4.16.3: Couldn't load target `test':No such file or
directory

Try `iptables -h' or 'iptables --help' for more information.

Expected result:
  New rule added to the PREROUTING chain of the raw table, with jump target set
as custom chain.

You have to use

iptables -t raw -N test

Otherwise, the new chain `test' is created in the filter table.
