I agree with the stupid IP part...it was just for the mail. I did try quite a few IP addresses. But on the comment about it not being part of 2.4.

Pretty sure it entered libipt_iprange: parse_iprange function. -Karthik On Thu, Nov 6, 2008 at 8:24 PM, Sven-Haegar Koch <haegar@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > On Thu, 6 Nov 2008, Karthik V wrote: > >> I am faced with a weird error for IPTABLES version 1.2.9 on 2.4 >> kernel.
