I skip through logwatch on a couple of machines each day, to see if any disasters have occurred. But I don't really understand many of the entries, or rather their significance. Eg today: --------------------- iptables firewall Begin ------------------------ Dropped 6 packets on interface eth0 From 87.230.101.22 - 1 packet to tcp(25) From 124.229.7.16 - 3 packets to tcp(25) From 190.2.0.221 - 2 packets to tcp(25) ---------------------- iptables firewall End ------------------------- So should I ignore these strange people? And --------------------- samba Begin ------------------------ **Unmatched Entries** nmbd/nmbd_incomingrequests.c:process_name_refresh_request(173) Error - should be sent to WINS server : 564 Time(s) ---------------------- samba End ------------------------- What is an "unmatched entry? I guess I'm looking for a beginners' guide on "Logwatch entries and what to do about them"? -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College Dublin -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
