Packet logs generated by my ipchains firewall are being displayed on the currently selected tty device yet I don't have any syslog rules which use /dev/console. I have activated the rule sending much output to /dev/tty12, yet the packet logs (generated using the KERN_NOTICE facility setting by ip_fw.c in the kernel) which should match the *.=NOTICE rule aren't going to tty12!
I didn't get this when I was using SuSE's distro and have no idea what to try to fiddle with. Anyone any ideas? Cheers, Robin Collins
