Subject:   Setting Up IPMON Logging for IPFilter
Message-ID:  <1125811476.86211.19.camel@homey.my.domain>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
I'm running FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE #0 and intend to install IPFilter.
Section 25.5.7 IPMON Logging, of the FreeBSD Handbook, instructs you to
add the statement, "security.*  /var/log/ipfilter.log" to
the /etc/syslog.conf file.  etc/syslog.conf already includes a similar
statement, "security.*  /var/log/security".  Wouldn't this result in the
same security message posting to two different log files?

What am I missing?

Thnx,
Bob Perry
