I have been working on a Shorewall logfile beautifier based on parsefw.c
from the Shorewall website.  I currently have it working with Weblet
under Bering.  Formats the netfilter log to look more like the old
ipchains style log.  Easier to understand for us noobies (I think ;))

I've been testing it on a Mandrake box, and then moved it to my Bering
box.  The first thing I noticed was the calls to getservbyport() wasn't
returning the same information.  I took a look at the services file, and
saw why.  ITS FROM 1997.  A bit out of date.  I suggest we update this
to something a little more 21st Century.  My log beautifier is trying to
return the dest port #, and whatever nice human-readable description of
the services that are usually on that port.  Might cut down on "What
does this log entry mean" type questions.

Also, how should I go about integrating this into Weblet?
