Hi All, On my Iptables firewall some packets gets logged to /var/log/messages. The messages file is getting unreadable with all these iptables logging and I am looking for a better way to log these messages. Since these are kernel messages my thought went to the syslog.conf file and I configured that all kern.warn events should be logged to /var/log/firewall ( so they dont mess up my messages file ) after doing this it looks like only half of the messages gets logged in /var/log/firewall and the other half still gets logged to /var/log/messages. Are there different types of severity concerning iptables logging ? Has someone got a better idea to prevent messing up the messages file ? Tia, Edwin
