Hi all Environment: Slackware 10.2.0 iptables v1.3.3 syslogd 1.4.1 klogd 1.4.1 Test rule: $IPTABLES -A INPUT -s SOME_IP -m state --state NEW -j RULE_23 $IPTABLES -A RULE_23 -j LOG --log-level info --log-prefix "R.23/ACCEPT/global/RULE_23 " $IPTABLES -A RULE_23 -j ACCEPT I can see LOG messages in dmesg but not in /var/log/messages: R.23/ACCEPT/global/RULE_23 IN=eth0 OUT= MAC=x:x:x... SRC=SOME_IP DST=X.X.X.X LEN=84 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=54 ID=2 DF PROTO=ICMP TYPE=8 CODE=0 ID=12070 SEQ=512 syslogd.conf relevant line is: # Log anything 'info' or higher, but lower than 'warn'. # Exclude authpriv, cron, mail, and news. These are logged elsewhere. *.info;*.!warn;\ authpriv.none;cron.none;mail.none;news.none -/var/log/messages I have another system with these same config (I think they are the same!) and it is working ok. Any clue about what is going wrong??
