209	  of a server.  DCC Sending is used anywhere you send files over IRC,
210	  and DCC Chat is most commonly used by Eggdrop bots.  If you are

263	  box, you may want to enable this feature.
264
265	  Please note that not all PPTP modes of operation are supported yet.
266	  Specifically these limitations exist:
267	    - Blindly assumes that control connections are always established

1084	  This option adds a `tcpmss' match, which allows you to examine the
1085	  MSS value of TCP SYN packets, which control the maximum packet size
1086	  for that connection.

1093	---help---
1094	  This option adds a "time" match, which allows you to match based on
1095	  the packet arrival time (at the machine which netfilter is running)
1096	  on) or departure time/date (for locally generated packets).

1107	---help---
1108	  u32 allows you to extract quantities of up to 4 bytes from a packet,
1109	  AND them with specified masks, shift them by specified amounts and
1110	  test whether the results are in any of a set of specified ranges.
1111	  The specification of what to extract is general enough to skip over
1112	  headers with lengths stored in the packet, as in IP or TCP header
1113	  lengths.
1114
1115	  Details and examples are in the kernel module source.
