Hello List, I am having problem in getting iptables recent module working for me, so I was looking into /proc to get some clues. I see following line in the /proc for my iptables recent rule: # cat /proc/net/ipt_recent/badguy src=10.0.0.17 ttl: 63 last_seen: 3301974512 oldest_pkt: 2 3301973507, 3301974512 What does ttl mean? Is it time-to-live or what? What does it signify? -- CS
