I need to change a Guardian-modified table/chain.  For some reason, Guardian thinks I'm being hacked by my DSL router if I access the server using the external NIC when I am inside the firewall.  I need to be able to access the server from outside the firewall occasionally to prove that it can be done when clients either misspell or otherwise miss the domain they are looking for.

The chain in question says:
  Chain gre-in (1 references)
  target     prot opt source               destination        
  denylog    all  --  anywhere            !myrouteraddress.myprovider.net
  ACCEPT     all  --  anywhere             anywhere          

I've been through the iptables --help command and I got more confused.  

Can I just delete the chain by:
"sbin/iptables -D gre-in" ?

Should I just flush the tables?

Thanks

Just Reboot.... all the entries from Guardian are lost on reboot.

Also, you may want to add the offending IP address to the

/etc/guardian.ignore file.
