Hi everybody! I'm looking for a way to change my IPTables log from the /var/log/messages files for another file, because it's putting a lot of 'trash' on dmesg. Is it possible? How can I do this? I have been looking the syslog-ng.conf file and couldn't understand how to configure the source of the logged informations...

Thanx a lot

perhaps is better to use metalog, AFAIK.

People, dont start the flames, for THIS purpose is easier.

And even, we have freedom (r)

I could think about it, but I'm affraid I can't change my system logger. It's for a Final Graduation Project, and I have to use the default syslog of the machine where I'll test my system.
