firestarter firewall clutters up dmesg output, kernel logs
Tired of firestarter making your dmesg output meaningless?
This thread has good fixes: First, we want to set the log level of firestarter to 'warning' in /etc/firestarter/configuration : :: Code :: LOG_LEVEL=warningthen turn off those silly messages that scroll by all the time. Note that you are commenting out only the 3 lines here, these occur near the bottom of the file by the way: :: Code :: $IPT -A INPUT -j LOG_FILTER
#$IPT -A INPUT -j LOG --log-level=$LOG_LEVEL --log-prefix "Unknown Input" $IPT -A OUTPUT -j LOG_FILTER #$IPT -A OUTPUT -j LOG --log-level=$LOG_LEVEL --log-prefix "Unknown Output" $IPT -A FORWARD -j LOG_FILTER #$IPT -A FORWARD -j LOG --log-level=$LOG_LEVEL --log-prefix "Unknown Forward" then restart firestarter: :: Code :: /etc/init.d/firestarter restartThis one has been bugging me for a while, another very good example of poorly thought out defaults that most people would never even realize are a problem, and which are only fixable if you already know what the question is.
