why incoming packet's device not logging?

why incoming packet's device not logging?

[cranium2003]

hello,
    I added 3 rules to iptables as
iptables -A INPUT -j LOG
iptables -A OUTPUT -j LOG
iptables -A FORWARD -j LOG
 But i am getting log of forward and output chain
correctly but why when packet comes its incoming
device is not logged. My IPTABLES is

It seems that these last three rules accept basically all packets and
thus the LOG rule is never reached.. Or do you have more network cards
than eth0 and eth1 ?

You say it works for FORWARD, but I don't think I see how it could..

I wonder if those ACCEPTs are there by mistake.. maybe they should be at
the end of the RH-Lokkit-0-50-INPUT chain instead?

If you need further help, please give more info about your network setup.

-A appends the rule to the end of the chain...let's see if that matters.

so the first rule in INPUT, is to jump to the RH-Lokkit-0-50-INPUT
chain.

> -A INPUT -j LOG 

and the second rule is to LOG.  so let's skip down and see what
RH-Lokkit-0-50-INPUT does...

so we ACCEPT SMTP, HTTP, FTP, SSH, TELNET, and DHCP traffic--so none of
that will ever make it to your LOG rule.

and now we've unconditionally ACCEPTed all traffic arriving in on lo,
eth0, and eth1.  if those are all the interfaces you have, then there's
no traffic left that will traverse any further rules.

<--snip-->

if you're looking to create you own firewall script from scratch, do
just that--start from scratch:

  #!/bin/bash
  # delete all rules and user-defined chains
  for t in mangle nat filter; do
    iptables -t $t -F
    iptables -t $t -X
    iptables -t $t -Z
  done

  # set all policies to ACCEPT
  for c in PREROUTING POSTROUTING OUTPUT; do
    for t in mangle nat; do
      iptables -t $t -P $c ACCEPT
    done
  done

  for c in INPUT FORWARD OUTPUT; do
    for t in mangle filter; do
      iptables -t $t -P $c ACCEPT
    done
  done

alternatively, you could type "service iptables stop" which basically
does the above...but what's the fun in that?

after everything is cleared out--then you can start adding your own
rules.
