I'm sorry this is not strictly firewall related, but maybe you can enlighten me anyway. I just found this kernel log message:
Aug 18 02:54:11 woody kernel: eth0: Promiscuous mode enabled. Aug 18 02:54:11 woody kernel: device eth0 entered promiscuous mode Aug 18 02:54:14 woody kernel: device eth0 left promiscuous mode and i don't know what it means. I didn't do anything special, AFAIKR, at this time. No suspend either, no shutdown or booting, just writing emails...iptables didn't log anything either.
