That's odd. Normally, its the other way around. Are you > sure the messages are coming from the remote machine and not from the > local?
Yes I am, & I fixed it. I was using Guarddog to manage the firewall on that machine. I sat down at the machine yesterday, opened GD, & looked at the Logs tab. "Log blocked packets" was unchecked. "Log rejected packets" was unchecked. When unchecked, about 10 other options under it were grayed out. One of them was "Log aborted TCP connections", which, since it was grayed out, I presumed meant that it was ignored. However, I checked "Log rejected packets", which activated everything under it, unchecked "Log aborted TCP connections", re-unchecked "Log rejected packets", & then saved. Bingo! It works now. How totally freakin' annoying. But I can log in to my home machine now, & I'm not flooded with messages about packet logging now. Scott -- R.
