Hi!

I'm currently developing an iptables GUI interface (kmyfirewall) and i'm a 
litttle bit confused about the different tables used by the iptables.
There is p.e. a Chain called OUTPUT in the "filter", "mangle" and in the "nat" 
table. 
I know that these chains are independent but i couldn't find out the order in 
which the packets pass the chains/tables.

I would be very thankful if anyone could show me a diagramm (or where to find 
one) of the netfilter achitectuer with all it's tables and chains and of 
course the order in which the packetes are passing the chains/tables.

thanks a lot

greetings,
		chris
