Hi all! This is not a technical problem in fact, only my curiousty. I applied the time patch with patch-o-matic and test it with a rule like iptables -A INPUT -p icmp -m time --timestart 14:44 --timestop 14:55 --days Fri -j DROP When the current time is passing the start time (packages will be matched and dropped soon) and the stop time (they'll be free to pass again) there is about 1 min. delay between these two process. For example, when it's 14:55, then the icmp packages shouldn't be matched anymore but they are dropped till it's about 14:56. Why? Have a nice day.. ===== M.Barýþ Demiray DOS: n., A small annoying boot virus that causes random spontaneous system crashes, usually just before saving a massive project. Easily cured by UNIX.
