- From your post I also tried and are not able to reproduce it on
localhost.

... And after flushing the table and reinstalling the filter, the
problem is gone completly.

I just think now, that it is not initializing the hashlimit correctly
when overwriting a table with iptables-restore that already has such a
hastable in use with the same name. I never removed entries, I always
replaced them with iptables-restore.

Thanks for the final hint and sorry to have brought that to the list.

Regards
   Klaus
