Hi all
I fully apologize for my previous post, that's a mistake.
I apologize this should be adressed to the vahalla-list, but this is an
iptables problem, wich is the same for the 8.0 version.
Simple problem: I wish in the same rule, set both the 'LOG' and 'DROP'
targets.
Either do I must set both same rules, first with a LOG target, second
with a DROP target, or may I set the two targets directly in one rule ?
Example: Either 1)
/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -d ${IPADDR} --syn -j LOG
/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -d ${IPADDR} --syn -j DROP
or 2)
/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -d ${IPADDR} --syn -j LOG DROP
Indeed, ${IPADDR} is my IP address, the rules are to be set in a Shell
script. ( I need my specific IP adress, which is dynamic, so I can't use
the firewall system file /etc/sysconfig/iptables. )
Alternatively, if neither of these works, which is the way for doing
this ?
Secondary, what is the resulting effect of the
"--log-ip-options" parameter of the LOG target, upon the log appearance in
/var/log/messages ?
Thank you very much for your responses.
Best regards.
