Would you mind testing the setup with an unpatched upstream kernel, that
has tproxy built-in? (2.6.31, for example)

Also, please download the latest iptables from netfilter.org and try
using that. (No need for patching, tproxy support is in upstream.)

That would help a lot in identifying the source of the issue. Thanks in
advance.

Cheers,
