I thought about logging the incoming packets until I can figure out what's

chain at this point)? or does it simply log the packet and pass it to the
next rule?
If I remember correctly it will simply log it and move down the chain.
Also, with regards to logging, I'm not sure how/where to examine the logslook in your /etc/syslog.conf file there is a line for what is going to the console. You'll want to change it to something more appropriate.
after the fact. I'm sure there's a file, or an iptables command, but
haven't found it yet. I've noted that when I DO use the log options, the
log messages show up in my console session (hence the reason I'm not using
logs right now). Do I need to do something to reroute these messages to a
file? Or even to TTY8 or something like that.
