However, I must be missing something obvious as it refuses to log to a file. Here's the appropriate lines that I've added to: /etc/rc.conf firewall_logging_enable="YES" /etc/syslog.conf !ipfw *.* /var/log/ipfwlog I added those 2 lines at the bottom of syslog.conf and I used TABs, not spaces. I then "touch"ed /var/log/ipfwlog, and have left the default permissions on for the moment: ls -l /var/log/ipfwlog -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 0 Apr 13 12:58 /var/log/ipfwlog Am I missing a typo or something, or have I forgotten to add another line someplace? I've "hup"ped syslogd umpteen times, not to mention re-booting several times.
