Title: Checkpoint log forwarding.

I have had a look at phone boy, and haven't turned up the answer so I thought I'd post here.

I'm looking to forward logs to a central server, I have syslog successfully running on this server.

I modified the Checkpoint box (nokia) to forward all local1.* rules to it (@10.0.0.1)
re-hupped and tested:
  logger -p local1.info This is a test

Works perfectly, I then setup a User defined rule as:
  $FWDIR/bin/logger -p local1.info Test2
and applied this to a test rule:
  on echo request from my PC to the FW pass and do user defined alert.

Works a treat, the problem I have is this - I would like a more informative message to be passed to syslog. Ideally $_ (to use a Perl syntax). But at least the rule that tripped the alert and maybe the src address etc.

Is there any information about variables that can be used in User defined rules? This facility has great potential but without this sort of thing is next to useless.
