Hi John,

Hello, all.  I find myself perplexed by what I often see in our logs.
At the end of our FORWARD chain, we log drops for no matches:

[root@fw01 log]# iptables -v -n -L FORWARD
Chain FORWARD (policy DROP 528K packets, 85M bytes)
  pkts bytes target     prot opt in     out     source

0.0.0.0/0           LOG flags 0 level 4 prefix `No Match: '


The above shows SMTP, LDAP, and memcached replies which should have been
accepted.  Why would I see this?

I do not know what kind of rules do you have between the "RELATED,ESTABLISHED" and the "LOG/DROP" rules, but I do not see any "conntrak NEW" rule there... And as far as I can tell, your UPEPIN_DENY chain does not get any hit... (If that chain ment to deny any unwanted traffic.)

To answer your question:
You see those logs becaus the packets are:
 - not "RELATED" or "ESTABLISHED",
 - not filtered in the VPN_ALLOW chain, (not marked with 0xcccc)
 - not droped in the UPEPIN_DENY chain,
 - not accepter the UPEPIN chain...

These packets can be:
 a, "NEW'",
 b, "INVALID",
 c, "UNTRACKED",
 and none of them are "ACCEPT"-ed... :D
