I can't seem to call iptc_flush_entries() in my code without getting a seg-fault. iptc_flush_entries() dosn't cause the seg-fault, but the value returned from subesquent calls to iptc_next_chain() causes a seg-fault, instead of a pointer to a chain name, I keep getting 0x28. This may be my incompetence surfacing, but I can't find anything in my code that would cause this. see the included URL (cutterslade.dhs.org/~wesley/iptablesbug/) for code samples and...
