Either
$iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp -s 10.0.0.0/8 -i eth0 -j DROP
or
$iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp -s 10.0.0.0/255.0.0.0 -i eth0 -j DROP
will work.
Thank you Bruno. Just wanted to verify about the wild cards.
Sorry for all the questions, IP's confuse me a bit. :) LOL
Say if I have a range of 222.96.0.0 - 222.122.255.255
Is there a calculator that will tell me the netmask??
There isn't one. The net mask is powers of two. It is often
easier to think of it as 222.96.0.0/11 for the nearest to the
case you site, 222.96.0.1 to 22.127.255.254. That means
255.240.0.0 is the mask.
