Bug ID: 248560
Summary: syslog unable to divert ipfw messages to separate
logfile
Product: Base System
Version: 12.1-RELEASE
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Only Me
Priority: ---
Component: bin
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
According to the man page:
man 5 syslog.conf
it is possible to divert ipfw messages to a separate logfile by adding these
lines to the configuration:
# Log ipfw messages without syncing after every message.
!ipfw
*.* -/var/log/ipfw
The result: All output of ipfw is logged to /var/log/security, but the above
config lines are without effect.
This used to work on previous versions of FreeBSD, but does no longer seem to
be true for 12.1-RELEASE.
I am unsure if functionality has changed and the documentation is now outdated
or if the documentation is correct and this is a bug?
