I just tried that (cut-and-pasted directly from your email), but it still
gives the 'Invalid argument' error.  (Oddly, if I insert a limit rule into
a chain with -I rather than appending with -A, it says 'Target problem'
instead.)

What architecture and kernel are you using (seeing that it works for you)?
(And which Debian distribution?)
