The reason is that from some point ipfw changed its log facility from kernel to security. to see ipfw messages on the console again, you should change the line in your /etc/syslog.conf file, that says what messages must go to console ( usually it is first rule in /etc/syslog.conf ). like this: <-------old line-------> *.err;kern.debug;auth.notice;mail.crit /dev/console <-------new line-------> *.err;kern.debug;auth.notice;mail.crit;security.* /dev/console Good Luck ;------------------------------------------- ; NKritsky ; SysAdmin InternetHelp.Ru ; http://www.internethelp.ru ; mailto:nkritsky@internethelp.ru To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
