Description:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Netstat-nat is a small program written in C. It displays NAT connections, 
managed by netfilter/iptables which comes with the > 2.4.x linux kernels. The 
program reads its information from '/proc/net/ip_conntrack' or 
'/proc/net/nf_conntrack', which is the temporary conntrack-storage of 
netfilter. (http://www.netfilter.org/)
For any program options see sector 'Usage' section below.
