Neither are pings and alike. syslogd and inetd are running. >What's missing? inetd logs "refused" connections by default, but not accepted ones. /etc/rc.conf entry: inetd_flags="-l" should be all you need. successful logging is syslogd to: daemon.info perhaps your /etc/syslog.conf is missing the entry for daemon.info anfd finally the log file must pre-exist; suslogger won't create a missing file. -- Jim Pazarena mailto:paz@ccstores.com http://www.qcislands.net/paz To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
