Hi, I'm having problems with logging from iptables, and I can't figure out for the life of me what the problem is... I'm trying to log some packets from iptables, but they're showing up on the currently active console as well as in the syslog (although not on xterms). No other kernel messages seem to be showing up on the console, just packet messages. I'm running debian unstable, kernel 2.4.23-686-1, sysklog version 1.4.1-13. The output of /sbin/iptables -L -n is:
<input output and forward chains removed> Chain drop-and-log-it (5 references) target prot opt source destination LOG all -- 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 LOG flags 0 level 6 DROP all -- 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 where the drop-and-log-it chain is the only place I do any logging. My syslog.conf is at the end of the message -- sorry I can't do attachments here well. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks, -- Keith P.S.
