I wanted to port SuSEfirewall1/2 to Debian and Red Hat. The result ist, that the netfilter works, but logging ist still to /dev/tty1-6. This nerves, if I want to do something direct on the server. If I login from remote (ssh) there is no problem with these logs and anyway the most time I setup things via remote. Any hints what's wrong?
Compare the /etc/syslog.conf files from the other distributions to SuSEs. Probably kern.* are "wall(1)"ed.
I looked in the script but did not find any options which tell iptables to log to console. Is it maybe a patch from SuSE within iptables?
I don't think so. iptables logs always as facility kernel, with a chooseable level in the logging statement. Peter
