Not seeing injected packets traversing iptables

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I am injecting packets in a network. I can see this packets from 
libpcap 
from several machines so the packets are there. The machine supposed 
to receive 
the packets can see them too in a tcpdump. Besides it answers to some 
of them 
(syn/ack if I inject tcp syncs) so packets are arriving. The tools I 
use to inject 
packets are packit, nemesis and others home-made over libnet. The 
problem is that 
in spite of packets being received they does not seem to enter 
iptables as I cannot 
LOG or ULOG them in destination machine. This does not happen with 
convencional traffic as pings or tcp connections that can be logged 
normally. 
It seems to be a problem related to "artificially" injected traffic 
not reaching iptables. 
¿Is conttrack or some part of iptables realising this packets are not 
legal enough to reach 
iptables? 
 
logging rule is quite simple
