Is there a short-term hack I can use to insert a rule of the following

# iptables -t mangle -I tcfor 3 -m helper --helper sip -j MARK --set-mark 0x1

Where "3" is the number of rules (or number of the last rule) in the
tcfor chain?

I'm thinking of something in the "start" script, or even a compile-time
script, but I don't know if I have knowledge of the number of rules in a
given chain or not.

A compile-time script won't work because this is the mangle table.

I suppose I could just count them in the script,
but that's a bit hacky.  :-)

It's the best you can do until 4.2.0 Beta 2.


I'm using shorewall-perl 4.0.6 on the control station and shorewall-lite
4.0.5 on the router.

Shorewall-perl 4.2.0 Beta2 has a HELPER column in tcrules.
