[tproxy] Clarification on tproxy4 usage

[Arun Srinivasan]

I did clear the cache and verified. Also all my iptables policies are
ACCEPT by default. However no luck.

Btw, could you tell me the latest version of tproxy and iptables that
you have verified. So that I could give a shot at it.

Thank you.
