Firstly, ensure you're starting ipmon with the -Ds flags. This will
put it in daemon mode and log through syslogd. 

I've had a problem with logfile formats in the past and this was
because I was not running the correct version of ipmon. 

do 
sudo ipf -V

Check the version. Then do which ipf

Then check to see that the ipmon is running is in the same directory.

Otherwise, post a sample log line...
