    Hi Falk,
           I had tried ipchains..
    But What i am triying is I look the SRC IP address of
    the incomming paket and depending upon whether it is
    odd or even,I decide to accept it or reject it.
    Now I did not find a way to specify such a rule in
    ipchains. So I went with implementing it in the
    kernel.
    Is there a way u know of specifying this in ipchains.

    I would appreciate Your suggestions
