[PLUG] iptables error message

[Lynn Yuan]

I start iptables by typing /etc/rc.d/init.d/iptables
start. My interanl linux boxes can browse internet
without any problems, but the error message (iptables
v1.2.7a: host/network 'start92.168.0.0' not found try
'iptables -h for more information) occured when I
start the iptables by /etc/rc.d/init.d/iptables start
or restart. I search configaration files under
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts,
/etc/firewall/firewall.conf.iptables,
firewall.local.iptables, firewall.dns, firewall,banned
even the files under /etc/rc.d/init.d/iptables etc.,
but couldn't find any '92.168.0.0'.
