I’m trying to see if I can get the Linux 2.6 kernel to generate a syslog

It’s easy to log the start of a “connection” regardless of whether it’s TCP or
UDP:

sudo iptables -I FORWARD 8 -m state --state NEW -j LOG --log-prefix "New: "
--log-level 7

sudo iptables -I FORWARD 9 -m state --state RELATED -j LOG --log-prefix
"Related: " --log-level 7

I can also log the end of a TCP connection by looking for RST or FIN flags.

My man and google fu just isn’t finding a way to log when a UDP “connection”
gets removed from the connection tracking table.

Anyone have any hints?

Not sure you can actually do this with iptables. Have you had a look at 
conntrack?
