nflog_open - open a nflog handler
.PP
This function obtains a netfilter log connection handle\&. When you are finished with the handle returned by this function, you should destroy it by calling \fBnflog_close()\fP\&. A new netlink connection is obtained internally and associated with the log connection handle returned\&.
