It's possible to adjust this behaviour by changing the weblet's OK/warning/error thresholds. I see you've got some advice on that already. There's also the possibility that the bulk of those packets are from one or two harmless sources that you don't really need to worry about - it's common for cable/ADSL systems to spew forth all sorts of stuff of this type. If this is the case it might be helpful to fiddle with your firewall rules so these things don't get logged in the first place. I'd be inclined to do the latter, mainly because I only really want stuff that I have to think about in my logs and I find a lot of extra rows of harmless activity often make more important entries difficult to spot, but it's your firewall - you should do whichever you want. cheers Julian -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.ljchurch.co.uk ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: Dice - The leading online job board for high-tech professionals.
