[S.u.S.E. Linux] Logging ICMP packets
How can I log incoming ICMP packets on my webserver ? He's standalone on the internet... For logging TCP & UDP, I can use tcpd, ok... but for ICMP ??? (like, logging attack attempts - although they don't harm ;-), I have 2.0.34pre14) I can't find a icmplogd (like Debian has, although RH doesn't have it either) Can I use the firewalling ?? (although I don't want/need to protect a local network) me ---lan----> firewall -----internet----> [webserver]----internet---->>> And don't tell me I should change that, and put the webserver on the firewall - the LAN & the firewall aren't under my control (it's the highschool's network, and the webserver is the student's site). ;-) Thanx for ya help...

You can log the output of tcpdump. Normally tcpdump just outputs to whatever tty you exec it on, but if you exec "tcpdump -i device > filename" it will create a text file log. If you irc a lot this file can get BIG. Pascal Bleser wrote:

There are many icmp loggers out there. I wrote one as a matter of fact.
