My "security check output" recently began to send me the following: chih.bfm.org login failures: grep: /var/log/messages: No such file or directory chih.bfm.org refused connections: grep: /var/log/messages: No such file or directory I have looked at the syslog.conf file and it seems "normal" ... I have also not made any changes that would account for this. A look at the /var/log directory shows that there is NOT a /var/log/messages file, but I don't know why it does not exist... I suspect that I have a 'stowaway' but can't be certain at this point... if I have an intruder, he (or she) knows more about FreeBSD than I do. I am running 3.5-stable help, please TIA P.S. please cc: reply to me directly as I am no longer on the maillist To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
