This patch changes the behaviour of nft to don't translate IP addresses to hostnames when printing rules. So, the behaviour of nft ends like this: <no -n given> show IP addresses numerically -n show IP addresses numerically -nn show Internet services and uid/gid numerically -nnn show protocols numerically -N translate IP addresses to names Signed-off-by: Arturo Borrero Gonzalez <arturo.borrero.glez@gmail.com> --- v2: add the -N switch to translate IP addresses to names. doc/nft.xml | 14 +++++++++++--- include/nftables.h | 1 + src/datatype.c | 4 ++-- src/main.c | 16 +++++++++++++--- 4 files changed, 27 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
