I suggjest using the -l flag on all rules to begin with
in case some the traffic hits other rules than you expect
or maybe the rules are not quite rigth so the policy
is inwoked instedead.
Also you can use a catch all rule to se what is not caugt
by any rules
from my rc.firewall:
# catch all rule, all other incoming is denied and logged. pity there is no
# log option on the policy but this does the job instead.
#
ipchains -A input -s 0.0.0.0/0 -d 0.0.0.0/0 -l -j DENY
