This is a really basic question, but one that has plagued me for a while.

My wife is behind a double NAT setup at school.
Her provider givers her an 10.100.x.x IP address, which, of course makes
Eigerstein ipchains default rules unhappy.

I commented out the rules that apply to blocking 10.100.x.x numbers so she
has access.  The problem is that her logfiles fill up almost instantly with
junk like this:

myrouter kernel: Packet log: input DENY eth0 PROTO=2 10.100.80.208:65535
239.255.255.250:65535 L=32 S=0x00 I=7688 F=0x0000 T=1 O=0x00000494 (#43)

But not just from one IP address.  Instead she gets these from practically
every 10.100.x.x IP available.

Clearly everyone in her provider's subnet is pushing out packet fragments,
or somehow their network is leaving packet fragments out there.

These are being caught by rule 43, which is a catchall I think.  I also
admit to not really being sure which freaking rule is rule #43, I mean I
look through the config, and I am not really sure how to count them.

SO is there any way to stop logging all of these packet fragments?


Thanks

Morgan
