It says right in the mapagfe for ipfw(8): When a packet matches a rule with the log keyword, a message will be logged to syslogd(8) with a LOG_SECURITY facility. So, unless you modify ipfw iteslf, you get to tune your syslogd.conf file. > > Thanks, erik. > -- Brian 'you Bastard' Reichert <reichert@numachi.com> 37 Crystal Ave. #303 Daytime number: (603) 434-6842 Derry NH 03038-1713 USA BSD admin/developer at large
