Hi gang, one other question for today - I tend to run the Firestarter firewall on my Linux distro's as it gives me a GUI that I can monitor for intrusion attempts (incidentally, I get about 60 per hour, most port 445 microsoft-ds attacks). I like the ability to watch it live. Question: I am letting my Suse 9.2 Pro firewall run on its own, but I can't see what it is doing. Is there a GUI available for it or some way that I can monitor it? I can't seem to find anything about this anywhere.
TIA, Paul
I open a konsole/terminal and go sudo tail -f /var/log/messages. This isn't as neat as a full gui but it does the job for me. I guess you could always pipe this into a grep command to include/exclude what you want. Just an idea. :) Fish
