Sat Apr 22 03:00:25 EDT 2000 Hi, I am not sure about the 3.2 kernel, but in 4.0 you can add IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE to your kernel. Also try and have a look at whether using the sysctl(8) interface in the MIB base of net.inet.ip.fw can do what you need. I read the above from the ipfw man page. My syslog.conf file only has security.* /var/log/security for the security logs, and that seems to work. One other thing, did you make sure that you have tabs and NOT spaces separating the *.* and /var/log/ipfw in your syslog.conf file? By the way, I just tried your method on my firewall logs and it worked. See if it is the spaces. Thank you. Hope that helps. I wish I knew more about 3.2. Andrew.
