Because I can see that the package is denied by:
-A INPUT -j RULE_8 -A FORWARD -j RULE_8 -A OUTPUT -j RULE_8 -A RULE_8 -j LOG --log-prefix "iptables: RULE 8 -- DENY " --log-level 6 -A RULE_8 -j DROP this is my last Rule. In the logfile I see: "Oct 21 08:18:35 firewall kernel: [1108215.699056] iptables: RULE 8 -- DENY <package content>" don't know why and I don't know how I can see the owner.
