Yes and the ruleset to Dachstein is nice enough that I have to check
it with the weblet to understand what is going where. Charles posted
the info on the SILENT_DENY option I couldn't figure out.

# Traffic to completely ignore...define here to prevent filling your
logs
# Space seperated list: protocol_srcip/mask_dstport
#SILENT_DENY="udp_207.235.84.1_route udp_207.235.84.0/24_37"

So you want something like:
SILENT_DENY="88_x.y.z.158"

I wasn't thinking about the changes in regards to a subnet compared
to a host. Something as a commented suggestion would have been much
clearer to me, like:

#SILENT_DENY="ProtoNumber_SourceAddress/Netmask_DestinationPort"
#Netmask and DestinationPort are optional

I edited my network.conf file to match these parameter on the web
trash, and waalaa it works perfect.!

Thanks to all again,
