I've uploaded Beta 6 for testing.

Problem Corrected update:

1)  Previously, NFACCT accounting rules generated iptables rules with
    the matches in the incorrect order. That caused the counters to be
    incremented before all of the matches had been checked. Now, the
    counter in an NFACCT rule is incremented only if all of the other
    matches have been successful.

    To allow a nfobject to be incremented unconditionally, you may
    follow the closing parenthesis with '!' (e.g., NFACCT(all)!). When
    '!' is omitted, the object is incremented only if all of the rule's
    matches succeed.

    "!" is useful in the following rule:

        NFACCT(all)     -       +fooset[src]    +barset[dst](foobar)

    In this rule, the 'all' nfacc counter is incremented
    unconditionally while the foobar counter is only incremented if
    the packet SOURCE address is in fooset and the DEST address is in
    barset.

New Features:

1)  The INLINE action is also supported in the accounting file. INLINE
    is treated the same as COUNT with the exception that the freeform
    iptables input following the ';' is appended to any matches
    generated by the column contents. In the accounting file, INLINE
    does not accept a parameter.

    This change will cause the order of matches in iptables rules to be
    different from in previously releases. Please report any
    differences that you find that are not simple match reorderings.

Thank you for testing,
-Tom
