Greg:
Heya. You got three options to fix this; used to kill me
too. First, you could upgrade your EigerStein box to a Dachstein
one. The Dachstein series puts log files on a separate ram-disk
partition, so even if that disk fills up, the router still works.
That will keep you running, but it won't keep your disk
from filling. To do *that* you could experiment with the SILENT_DENY
field in the network.conf file. Since you're on a cable modem
environment, you're going to see lotsa noise from other people's
networks, such as the DHCP requests you typed in below.
Lastly, you may want to give echowall.lrp a try. I built
it on my Eigerstein box on a cable-modem environment, so I was
very sensitive to minimizing what gets logged and what is, by
default, silently denied. You can see in the echowall.rules file
a much more aggressive "don't log this noise" list than what comes
stock on the Dachstein distribution.
Hope this helps!
