184	help
185	  There is a commonly-used extension to IRC called
186	  Direct Client-to-Client Protocol (DCC).  This enables users to send
187	  files to each other, and also chat to each other without the need
188	  of a server.  DCC Sending is used anywhere you send files over IRC,
189	  and DCC Chat is most commonly used by Eggdrop bots.  If you are
190	  using NAT, this extension will enable you to send files and initiate
191	  chats.  Note that you do NOT need this extension to get files or
192	  have others initiate chats, or everything else in IRC.

198	depends on NETFILTER_ADVANCED
199	help
200	  NetBIOS name service requests are sent as broadcast messages from an
201	  unprivileged port and responded to with unicast messages to the
202	  same port. This make them hard to firewall properly because connection
203	  tracking doesn't deal with broadcasts. This helper tracks locally
204	  originating NetBIOS name service requests and the corresponding
205	  responses. It relies on correct IP address configuration, specifically
206	  netmask and broadcast address. When properly configured, the output
207	  of "ip address show" should look similar to this:
208
209	  $ ip -4 address show eth0
210	  4: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 1000

221	  Protocol, RFC2637) connection tracking and NAT.
222
223	  If you are running PPTP sessions over a stateful firewall or NAT
224	  box, you may want to enable this feature.
225
226	  Please note that not all PPTP modes of operation are supported yet.
227	  Specifically these limitations exist:
228	    - Blindly assumes that control connections are always established
229	      in PNS->PAC direction. This is a violation of RFC2637.
230	    - Only supports a single call within each session

239	  SANE is a protocol for remote access to scanners as implemented

285	  This option enables transparent proxying support, that is,
286	  support for handling non-locally bound IPv4 TCP and UDP sockets.
287	  For it to work you will have to configure certain iptables rules
288	  and use policy routing. For more information on how to set it up

564	  the IPv4/IPv6 header DSCP field (differentiated services codepoint).
565
566	  The DSCP field can have any value between 0x0 and 0x3f inclusive.
567
568	  It will also add a "tos" match, which allows you to match packets
569	  based on the Type Of Service fields of the IPv4 packet (which share

590	  As opposed to `limit', this match dynamically creates a hash table
591	  of limit buckets, based on your selection of source/destination
592	  addresses and/or ports.
593
594	  It enables you to express policies like `10kpps for any given
