Well, I added a logging rule before that: iptables -A INPUT --source 10.11.0.0/16 \ -j LOG --log-level info --log-prefix "iptables " But when ever something gets through, it isn't being logged either... If I do "iptables -L -v", then I see that both rules (first the LOG, then the DROP) have the same packet count. I can try using "-I" instead, but I'd also like to log, so how would I do that? Am I missing something fundamental?
