In my /etc/rc.conf file, I have the following (among other things):
firewall_enable="YES" firewall_type="/etc/fw.rules" firewall_logging="YES" And of course, on my system, the /etc/fw.rules file is full of ipfw "add" commands. During a normal boot of FreeBSD, I can see those add commands being processed. They are shown, briefly, whizzing by, on the console. During a recent reboot, I also saw something at about the same time that looked like it might possibly have been some sort of ipfw error or warning message. I would like to investigate. Unfortunately it appears that all of the console messages that are being logged, during the time when ipfw is processing my local firewall rules file, are not in fact stored into either /var/log/messages nor even into /var/log/security. (I know. I looked.) So, um, where do these messages go, exactly? I really would like to have a look at the ones from the last boot. _______________________________________________ freebsd-ipfw@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ipfw To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ipfw-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
