Issue: insertion too big. CSF el5 plesk 8.3

I am seeing an issue with a new install of CSF on a
CPU GenuineIntel, Intel® Pentium® 4 CPU 3.00GHz
Operating system Linux 2.6.18-53.1.13.el5PAE
Plesk version psa v8.3.0_build83080131.20 os_RedHat el5

I was adding to the whitelist.. and got a iptables: Index of insertion too big

[root@ns1 csf]# /usr/sbin/csf -a 222.222.222.222
Adding 222.222.222.222 to csf.allow and iptables ACCEPT...
iptables: Index of insertion too big
ACCEPT all opt -- in eth0 out * 222.222.222.222 -> 0.0.0.0/0
Error: iptables command [/sbin/iptables -v -I INPUT 2 -i eth0 -s 222.222.222.222 -j ACCEPT] failed, at line 864

yet CSF shows it was added

[root@ns1 csf]# cat csf.allow
222.222.222.222 # Manually allowed - Mon Mar 3 22:28:54 2008

I tried...

[root@ns1 csf]# iptables -v -I INPUT -s 1.1.1.1 -j DROP
DROP all opt -- in * out * 1.1.1.1 -> 0.0.0.0/0

and I checked...

[root@ns1 csf]# /etc/init.d/iptables status
Table: mangle
Chain PREROUTING (policy ACCEPT)
num target prot opt source destination

Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
num target prot opt source destination

Table: filter

I tried this deny but got an iptables: Index of insertion too big again

[root@ns1 csf]# /usr/sbin/csf -d 1.1.1.2
Adding 1.1.1.2 to csf.deny and iptables DROP...

Error: iptables command [/sbin/iptables -v -I OUTPUT 2 -o eth0 -d 1.1.1.2 -j DROP] failed, at line 865

looking at csf.deny I see

1.1.1.2 # Manually denied - Mon Mar 3 23:13:45 2008

restarting I see both the allow 222.222.222.222 and deny 1.1.1.2

but not the 1.1.1.1 added using...
[root@ns1 csf]# iptables -v -I INPUT -s 1.1.1.1 -j DROP

restarting CSF...

[root@ns1 csf]# /usr/sbin/csf -s

csf: TESTING mode is enabled - don't forget to disable it in the configuration

It seem to be working... but why the error?

Also while I'm at it how does this look for a "plesk" conf


# Allow incoming TCP ports
TCP_IN = "20,21,22,25,53,80,110,143,443,465,993,995,8443"

# Allow outgoing TCP ports
TCP_OUT = "20,21,22,25,53,80,110,443,8443"

# Allow incoming UDP ports
UDP_IN = "20,21,53,8443"

# Allow outgoing UDP ports
# To allow outgoing traceroute add 33434:33523 to this list
UDP_OUT = "20,21,53,123,8443"

I'm not sure if I needed to add anything other than
DNS 53 tp UDP inbound

I'm not sure if I needed to add the plesk 8443 to the UDP outbound

nor 20 ftp-data to TCP inbound or outbound and UDP inbound

============
My Reference:
20=ftp-data
21=ftp command
22=ssh and sftp
25=smtp
53=dns
80=http
110=pop3
113=ident ???? turned off
123=ntp - time server
143=imap
443=https - ssl
465=smtp - ssl
993=imap -ssl
995=pop3 -ssl
8443=plesk -ssl
===============

I did also notice that I had to define
ETH_DEVICE = ""
as
ETH_DEVICE = "eth0"

as /etc/wwwacct.conf file does not exist

Also a last relatively obscure question,
I when accessing the Internet from home I do not have a dedicated IP with my
ADSL service " a C&Worthless $100 a month extra..! - another no competition pillage"

The question is, lets say they are using a IP range of 222.222.222.2 to 222.222.222.253

Is there a correct way to add a range of IP's to csf.allow ??
 
"When csf is in TESTING mode it will flush iptables after 5 minutes. When iptables is flushed, the iptables insert command doesn't work (as you cannot insert above a rule that doesn't exist). Once you take csf out of TESTING mode (in csf.conf) and restart csf, it should work without problems."

ahhhgh.. I forgot the logic that its a cover of the iptables script,,, even though it adds and remembers in CSF.. maybe this should be noted in the readme or conf to avoid any end user concern

also note in general non-cpanel install to set ETH_DEVICE = ""

A Question:

I'm not sure if I needed to add anything other than
DNS 53 tp UDP inbound
I'm not sure if I needed to add the plesk 8443 to the UDP outbound
nor 20 ftp-data to TCP inbound or outbound and UDP inbound
