I try to manually inserting this following rules
(exactly like what snortsam does to iptables):

- iptables -I INPUT -i eth0 -s 202.200.200.1 -j DROP
- iptables -I FORWARD -i eth0 -s 202.200.200.1 -j DROP
 
and I still got the same result. the traffic only 
blocked when I ping to 202.200.200.2 from PC-EXT 
(202.200.200.1), and when I ping to 10.1.1.2 (or 
another machine inside the network) the result was
disappointing me, the ping is still unblocked.

anyone, help me.. :'(
best regard
Matt
