Is it possible to compile miniupnpd without iptables support?

I can compile OK with miniupnpd-1.5.20110623 and iptables-1.4.11 and run on the target.

Since the target does not have iptables.
syslog error reads:
daemon.err miniupnpd[563]: get_redirect_rule_by_index() : iptc_init() failed : iptables who? (do you need to insmod?)

Just wondering if iptables support should be optional and if it has been attempted before. Otherwise will have attempt to modify and get it to compile and run without dependency on iptables.

Ok, but what is the purpose of running miniupnpd without iptables ?

My requirement is basically automatic discovery of my devices so they show up along-side other network equipment.

Users can now inspect all the instances of the device on their network, and
the presentationUrl takes them to the device web page for configuration.

miniupnpd works perfectly for me and I was hoping to reduce the size and prerequisites for an embedded target.

miniupnpd is a "Internet Gateway Device" UPnP device, maybe you should look for another type of UPnP device which fits your need better.

Thank you for the prompt responses on the list. I will consider other options too.

@amathur
I have the same goal as you have: only UPnP discovery is required. Also on my embedded target I look for small footprint daemon, without iptables.

Did you find your solution already?

@schma
I worked around it by disabling all references/calls to iptables in the code.
Hope it is not too late to reply.

Can you send me the code for that?
I have removed many lines of code from miniupnpd which is related to iptables and nfnetlink.
I have also removed the files from makefile which will prevent the compilation of those files.
I kindly request you if possible then please send the changed code.
