[gentoo-user] Problem with iptables logging (iptables: No chain/target/match by that name.)

[Nick Khamis]

Hello Everyone,

While trying to include a logging chain to our IPTables rules, I am
receiving the following
error: (iptables: No chain/target/match by that name.

The chain looks like:

# Set Log Limit
LOGLIMIT="2/s"
LOGLIMITBURST="10"

$IPTABLES -N LOGDROP

#echo -e "       - Logging Dropped Traffic"
# $IPTABLES -A LOGDROP -i $INTIF1 -p tcp -m limit --limit $LOGLIMIT
--limit-burst $LOGLIMITBURST -j LOG --log-prefix "TCP LOGDROP: "

# $IPTABLES -A LOGDROP -j DROP
# $IPTABLES -A INPUT -p icmp -i $INTIF1 -j LOGDROP
# $IPTABLES -A INPUT -p tcp  -i $INTIF1 -j LOGDROP
# $IPTABLES -A INPUT -p udp  -i $INTIF1 -j LOGDROP

Some searching caused me to make sure that I have the correct modules loaded:

modprobe ipt_LOG

Module                  Size  Used by
iptable_nat             3220  0
nf_nat                 11228  1 iptable_nat

iptable_filter           988  1
ip_tables               8370  2 iptable_filter,iptable_nat


But still no go.

Thank in Advance,

Nick.
