The topology of chains to tables is fundamentally different, In chains a packet that is to be forwarded must also go though the input and output chains. Under tables this packet only has to traverse the forward table, input and output tables only refer to packets destined for and from the firewall machine. I couldn't think of an easy way to differentiate between the two. I am happy to post my tables script and you can use that as the basis of yours if you like.

I've lost a machine.. literally _lost_. it responds to ping, it works completely, I just can't figure out where in my apartment it is. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
