Check the IPCHAINS-HOWTO.
In short,
kernel     - message from kernel
Packet log - log stamp
input      - chain in which packet got logged
DENY       - access 
PROTO=17   - udp
192.14.17.1:513 - source of package with originating at port 513 (who port)
192.14.17.255:513 - destination of package, connecting at port 513

Not sure about the rest.
