iptables requires packets counter

["RatÓn" <rats@wanadoo.es>]

Hello.

I´m new to packet-filtering. As you can imaging starting to use
iptables. Well once I´ve reached my first configuration I want to test
it by asking iptables if a certain type of traffic is going to be
ACCEPTED or not. To do this I make use of the -c option as follows:

> iptables -c forward -p tcp -s 172.26.0.2 -d 192.168.0.1 -i br0

But as unespected iptables answers:

'iptables v1.2.9: -c requires packet and byte counter'

Any help please?

Thanks a lot. RatÓn.
