That is strange, because if I use those values, it does not work. If I use "--from 31" alone, then it works. As soon as I change that to 32, it stops working. When I inspect the packets in Wireshark, the "getstatus" string starts at offset 48 if counting from 1. Would there be a way for iptables to print to log what it sees in the specified offset range?<br>
