Hi all,

My cable-ISP keeps sending polling messages to my computer. Looks like:

Dec 18 22:08:38 tbird kernel: Packet log: input DENY eth1 PROTO=17

In itself no problem. But these things also show up in /var/log/messages,
and pop through on the console outside of X. Is there a way that you know to
suppress this stuff?
Or, on second thought, is this coming from somewhere else, e.g. a firewall?
