Hello amit,

    I think you should manually check the existence of possible
    duplicate before adding rule. Also you can do somethig like:

    iptables -D INPUT -d 192.168.0.2/32 -i eth1 -j DROP
    iptables -A INPUT -d 192.168.0.2/32 -i eth1 -j DROP

    Then you will never get duplicates.
    But the first way is more correct.
