Hi

I would like to be able to pass options to a custom chain. For instance :

$IPT -N log_and_drop

$IPT -A bad_tcp_packets -p tcp ! --syn -m state --state NEW -j log_and_drop --set-custom-arg "New not syn: "

$IPT -A log_and_drop -j LOG --log-prefix --get-custom-arg
$IPT -A log_and_drop -j DROP


Is there any way to do that ? I thought that it could also be achieved with kind of templates in the shell script that init the rules...

Thanks for your assistance.

Regards.

Paul.
