Message-ID: <20000709021626.A4154@shortboy.net> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0.1us Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello All, I am having trouble with ipfw insisting it has to log to /dev/console. I do not want thise, I would prefer it to log to file. BUT...... I have searched the mail list and followed the information provided by previous ppl on the ML, such as editing /etc/syslog.conf. This didnt work. I went so far as killall -9 syslogd, and the bloody thing still logs to /dev/console. Basically, this is driving me NUTS! I'm wondering if its to do with me running the older 3.3-REL kernel? As I'm not subscribed to the list, could you please email me directly?
