    Hi all. I'm trying to get to grips with iptables, but I'm flummoxed by

    iptables> sudo iptables --table nat -D PREROUTING -p tcp --source \!192.168.0.0/24 --dport ssh -j REDIRECT --to-port 20022
    iptables v1.8.7 (nf_tables): host/network `!192.168.0.0' not found
    Try `iptables -h' or 'iptables --help' for more information.


    So what is the syntax to make a rule match sources other than the given please?


    Thanks.


    Grrr. The online man page (https://linux.die.net/man/8/iptables) I was
    looking at is wrong. It should be ! -s <address> not -s !<address>

    Not good.

    Done, but as they don't give contact info on their pages I assume
    they're not welcoming input.

    And the email to webmaster@... has just bounced (Operation timed out).
    They really don't seem to want people to talk to them.
