extensions: libxt_SNAT: rename IPv4 manpage and tell about IPv6 support
This patch renames libipt_SNAT.man to libxt_SNAT.man thus informing about the IPv6 version. Also the list of valid protocols for port mapping is updated to: tcp, udp, dccp and sctp. Signed-off-by: Mart Frauenlob <mart.frauenlob@chello.at> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
