When using log_in_vain="YES" I get a lot of console message of these types: Jan 21 03:01:12 ultimate kernel: Connection attempt to TCP 127.0.0.1:113 from 127.0.0.1:49188 flags:0x02 Jan 21 03:01:12 ultimate kernel: Connection attempt to TCP 127.0.0.1:113 from 127.0.0.1:49190 flags:0x02 Jan 21 03:01:12 ultimate kernel: Connection attempt to UDP 127.0.0.1:512 from 127.0.0.1:49286 Jan 21 03:01:12 ultimate kernel: Connection attempt to UDP 127.0.0.1:512 from 127.0.0.1:49287 I assume the above entries happen when the cron jobs, auth and sendmail tries to send the daily reports. What does log_in_vain actually do/work? Is it possible to tell log_in_vain to ignore connections form localhost to localhost? Many thanks Didier
