Hi,

I want use the iptables for accounting.
1. How looks the iptable rules.
2. In which file under the proc filesystem I could read the counter values.

Thanks for any hints.

There are probably better applications to do accounting, but if you want to do that:
1. This rule will cover all HTTP-traffic
iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp --port 80
2. You can read the counters using
iptables -vnL
3. You can reset the counters using
iptables -Z

Cheers,

Ralf
