grsecuriy + owner-socketlookup

hi,

i tried to get grsecurity working with owner-socketlookup from patch-o-matic-ng (http://www.netfilter.org).

something in grsecurity seems to make the patch unuseable.

owner-socketlookup makes it possible to count input traffic to a local user account - this is very useful for traffic accounting because without that patch only output traffic is countable...

does someone know a way to get owner-socketlookup working with grsec?

thanks,
smith

Someone might actually help you if you had posted the error too, or at least a report _what_ exactly is not working in _what_ way and how it is _expected_ to work etc. foobar :)
