And ACCEPT (assuming that you have 'LOG LEVEL' on those).

Yes! But if you have an ACCEPT entries for ping and for DNS lookups, I would
think twice about logging those:

a) Do you really need to log every ping (remember that each echo-request
packet is in the NEW state). Think about ping floods.

b) Are you really interested in who did DNS lookups to where?

You've already seen what can happen if you don't.
