Delete a iptables chain with its all rules
- by timy
I have a chain appended with many rules like:
> :i_XXXXX_i - [0:0]
> -A INPUT -s 282.202.203.83/32 -j i_XXXXX_i
> -A INPUT -s 222.202.62.253/32 -j i_XXXXX_i
> -A INPUT -s 222.202.60.62/32 -j i_XXXXX_i
> -A INPUT -s 224.93.27.235/32 -j i_XXXXX_i
> -A OUTPUT -d 282.202.203.83/32 -j i_XXXXX_i
> -A OUTPUT -d 222.202.62.253/32 -j i_XXXXX_i
> -A OUTPUT -d 222.202.60.62/32 -j i_XXXXX_i
> -A OUTPUT -d 224.93.27.235/32 -j i_XXXXX_i
when I try to delete this chain with:
iptables -X XXXX
but got error like (tried iptables -F XXXXX before):
iptables: Too many links.
Is there a easy way to delete the chain by once command?
