I know nothing about this, always looking to learn and have no qualms
about appearing stupid of foolish. So I went to "the book". "Man
iptables":
-d, --destination [!] address[/mask]
Destination specification. See the description of the -s
(source) flag for a detailed description
...
-s, --source [!] address[/mask]
Source specification. Address can be either a network name, a
hostname (please note that specifying any name to be resolved
with a remote query such as DNS is a really bad idea), a net-
work IP address (with /mask), or a plain IP address.
Question: what am I missing here, since the man page seems to my
ignorant eye to support filters using net and/or host names.
