Package: iptables
Version: 1.4.3.2-2
This bug is NOT fixed in the lastest version of iptables (1.4.3.2-2).
I'm running Debian squeeze.
I have the following (perfectly correct) rules on my iptables script:
## Drop packets claiming to be from the loopback network (127.0.0.0/8)
$IPTABLES -A INPUT -i ! lo -s $LOOPBACK_NETWORK -j DROP
## Drop packets to the loopback network (127.0.0.0/8) that doesn't use lo
$IPTABLES -A INPUT -i ! lo -d $LOOPBACK_NETWORK -j DROP
Everytime I start or restart my rules (for instance doing a "/etc/init.d/firewall
restart") I get the following error messages:
Stopping the firewall... [End of flush]
Starting the firewall...
Using intrapositioned negation (`--option ! this`) is deprecated in favor of
extrapositioned (`! --option this`).
Using intrapositioned negation (`--option ! this`) is deprecated in favor of
extrapositioned (`! --option this`).
[End iptables rules setting]
If I remove those rules the error messages disappear.
The error messages also dissapear if I substitute de above rules for
the following stupid an wrong rules:
$IPTABLES -A INPUT ! -i lo -s $LOOPBACK_NETWORK -j DROP
$IPTABLES -A INPUT ! -i lo -d $LOOPBACK_NETWORK -j DROP
