I found it was entirely due to a misconfiguration of syslog, in which when the log files were rolled, the restart of syslogd started it with the wrong settings, resulting in the messages from iptables >/dev/null as they were of insufficient priority. It was sufficiently mysterious to me at the time to seem magical.. *grin* Alistair FYI it was on Slackware 7.1, iptables 1.2.5ish setup ...
