You need to keep syslog from using the external port... You don't want to disable syslog completely, as you do want to receive logging messages. However, you don't need to have this port open to do so. In your /etc/rc.conf file, make sure syslog is enabled and add a second line with some options:
syslogd_enable="YES" syslogd_flags="-ss" Those two sses (make sure you have two, not just one) in the flags will disable logging from remote hosts and close that port, but still allow your localhost to keep its logging capabilities. -------------------- m2f -------------------- Read this topic online here: http://forums.zenoss.com/viewtopic.php?p=39147#39147 -------------------- m2f -------------------- _______________________________________________ zenoss-users mailing list zenoss-users@zenoss.org http://lists.zenoss.org/mailman/listinfo/zenoss-users
