hi,

simply set up a log-chain for accepting and/or rejecting packages
first jump to the log chain, then reject, deny, allow... from there :)

do a simple google for 'iptables+logfile' , this results in a lot of sites
with many hints.
i did the same thing, you also may have to change your settings in
/etc/syslog.conf ;)
it realy depends on what you like to log... dont log too much, this will
result in a very-big logfile, .....(think of your hd-space in /var/ or
somewhere else...)
