I suspect not, because the=20 problem here seems to be that "-j ULOG" should be AFTER the state matchin= g=20 part of the rule... If I enter the line you used, I get the same '--stat= e'=20 error, but if I put the target after the match (or remove the match, as p= er=20 my debugging suggestion above) it does NOT. j
