But still I get entries like these in my logs: (...) wich means, that the last rule (reject everything) catches those requests.

What do the rules have to look like to reject identd?

The syntax is correct. If you execute "iptables -L -v" you'll notice they are placed at the wrong position in the ruleset due your "-A". Try "-I INPUT/FORWARD 1" so they get first rule and are effective. Peter
