Do you mean something like a log of forwarded connections?  That can
simply be accomplished with the LOG target of iptables.

PS:  debian-security is not meant for discussing securing your firewall,
     but rather for reporting security vulnerabilities in Debian packages.  
         The debian-user mailing list is more appropraite for this kind of
         questions.
