Hi!
Well... BRIDGE-STP-HOWTO says to create a chains with
the bridge's name. I've done it with iptables but it doesn't work.
So, I created rules using FORWARD chain.. And it worked!!!
Looks like bridge code is using this chain.... Please try this issue.
I think Lennert Buytenhenk can answer it....
bests regards
