kernel messages in active virtual console
Hello, I'm using a very default Debian 3.0r2 system. Every time something happens with my NIC's (plug 'em in and out a hub) this generates a message in the active virtual console. In /var/log/messages these messages are said to come from the kernel. How do I get those messages from my consoles? I tried /etc/syslog.conf, kill klogd, read doc's and man pages but I can't find the cause. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

dhcp3-server and pcmcia
Hello, I'm trying to use an old Compaq Contura with 2 3COM 3c589D pcmcia NIC's as a router/firewall between my home network and my cable modem. I use Debian3.0r2 and Shorewall 1.4. The internal network should be served with DHCP(dhcp3). Here are two little problems: 1) dhcp3-server won't start by itself. It is started from /etc/rc2.d/S20dhcp3-server. The pcmcia service is also S20 from rc2.d. The NIC's (at least the one for the internal network) seem not to be ready when dhcp3-server is started. About 20 seconds after the pcmcia service is started this nic's reports to be initialized. When I start dhcp3-server from the commandline afterwards it starts without any problem. 2) Messages appear in the active console about switching from coax to 10baseT for eth0 (not connected yet). I found something in /etc/pcmcia/network.opts (IF_PORT) but cannot figure out how this affects each NIC. I tried 'ifport eth0 10baseT' from the command-line and this works. My question is how can I arrange both things the Debian way so I keep my system standard (for updates and maintainance)?
