Hi List,

Thank you really much for all the help :) Now everthing is workin fine...not
really everything *G*

OK IP Counting is no problem :) It was a problem but because of your nice
and workin answeres the silly one writing this mail got it :)

Now i plan to set up accounting for an CS Server. First aof all i wanna make
an own chain for this Server, that would be much easier to count packets for
different servers and things.

OK so i do:
iptables -N [CHAIN NAME]
and then add rules for example this one:
iptables -A [CHAIN NAME] -p tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT
so now i've made some traffic on my webbie and typed in that:

iptables -L -n -v -x

now the list is printed :) INPUT and the other Chains are correct but this
chain (my own one) didn count anything.

Maybe i just haven't understand what i'm doin :) or i'am silly *G*

So it be real nice if you help this silly man writing this mail *G*

Greetings and a really nice day :)

Stephan
