The answer is very simple. The integration of the open source ipfilter firewall into FreeBSD has changed between the 4.x releases and the 5.3 release just made available. If you change the syslog.conf:
Local0.* /var/log/ipfilter.log which is how 4.10 & 4.11 work To security.* /var/log/ipfilter.log for 5.3 then every thing will work as documented. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Francis Whittington Sent: Sunday, April 03, 2005 9:29 PM To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: ipfilter.log Hi guys, I've been following this guide: http://www.unixguide.net/freebsd/fbsd_installguide/index.php So far I have gotten the firewall/router to work. Everything seems to be okay, except I do not see anything being logged in ipfilter.log. My rc.conf options are: moused_enable="YES" moused_port="/dev/psm0" moused_type="auto" moused_flags="-m 2=3" allscreens_flags="-m on -c blink -h 200" clear_tmp_enable="YES" hostname="gateway.fbsdbuds.com" saver="logo" ifconfig_rl0="DHCP" ipfilter_enable="YES" ipfilter_rules="/etc/ipf.rules" ipmon_enable="YES" ipmon_flags="-Ds" ipnat_enable="YES" ipnat_rules="/etc/ipnat.rules" ifconfig_rl1="inet 10.0.10.2 netmask 255.255.255.248" gateway_enable="YES" I am using ipf.rules and ipnat.rules. I created ipfilter.log in /var/log/ and I added this line to syslog.conf: Local0.* /var/log/ipfilter.log and I added the following line to newsyslog.conf for rotating the log. /var/log/ipfilter.log 600 5 100 $M1D0 J I was wondering if anyone could tell me why I do not get anything in my ipfilter.log.
