Re: Problem with logging firewall packets

["Paul Dossett" <paul@korangar.bpa.nu>]

I'm running Progeny, and had to go to Debian's testing distro to get klogd,
but that doesn't seem to do anything... still investigating.

Both syslogd and klogd are running, according to top.. :)

Any more ideas?  I'm really stumped.  This worked fine under Red Hat.
