This is pretty high on my list of 'TODOs'...I have a friend who's being
consistently probed by private IP space addresses (ie source-routed
packets), but there's no way to log the options portion of the IP header
using 2.2 ipchains. I'd also like to re-structure the firewall scripts to
use more chains, and 2.4 based iptables...
IMHO, this would be the perfect project and appropriate time to turn LRP
distributions from 'one-man-band' projects to a real open source, community
driven project (ie I don't want to do all the work myself, but I'm willing
to help a lot :-)
