[tproxy] Fwd: Re: TProxy with UDP

Hi,

thanks for the quick reply! Ok then i guess i will have to do it this
way. The race condition should not be that much of a problem in my case
as i run single threaded and pass all packets from main proxy port to
the new tproxy port anyway. So i guess the only thing that could happen
is that i check the origdst for multiple packets and after the first
packed i only forward to my application logic and do not setup a new socket.

The only real problem i might have is how to decide when to close the
remote tproxy socket, but thats a application logic problem so i'll
figure something out.

Thanks for the help!

regards,

Maximilian Frank
