Hi,
I am not sure why, but every day, I get a huge syslog
in:
/var/log/message
which looks something like the following.
I have a 486 machine running Debian with Linux Kernel
2.2.18. On top of that, I am using pmfirewall to
manage my ipchains.
My external IP is: 24.5.117.188
And internally, I have a network of: 192.168.x.x
Here is todays log:
--x--
Mar 28 00:02:31 rosahas kernel: Packet log: input DENY
eth0 PROTO=17 24.5.117.188:513 24.5.117.255:513 L=136
S=0x00 I=10066 F=0x0000 T=64 (#40)

Mar 28 02:11:35 rosahas kernel: Packet log: input DENY
eth0 PROTO=17 24.5.117.188:513 24.5.117.255:513 L=160
S=0x00 I=39885 F=0x0000 T=64 (#40)
--x--
The log is for the I in the range of 10066 to 39885,
it adds like over 25-30 lines of the same stuff
incrementing the I= value.
Can someone please explain me what this is?
Thanks,
Rohit.
