I would try '-i eth0' for all you aliases and use '-i/-o address[/mask]' if you refer to a particular subnet. Reasoning: the interface is being aliased and iptables sees them all as eth0. Let me know if this works ;^) I'll be trying it shortly. // George -- GEORGE GEORGALIS, System Admin/Architect cell: 347-451-8229 Security Services, Web, Mail, mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] File, Print, DB and DNS Servers. http://www.galis.org/george
