Hello,

I saw that when activating bandwith monitoring in Webmin...
You can safely remove these lines and restart Shorewall.
But the better way would be to clean up Webmin.

Best regards;
Jerome Blion.

Greetings;

My syslog is getting 100s of thousands of messages like the following (these are just a sample); (BTW I am running Debian/lenny)

May 11 12:41:31 gatekeeper kernel: BANDWIDTH_IN:IN=eth1 OUT=eth0 SRC=192.168.0.4 DST=64.15.118.171 LEN=40 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=127 ID=37901 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=1307 DPT=80 WINDOW=17640 RES=0x00 ACK URGP=0 May 11 12:41:31 gatekeeper kernel: BANDWIDTH_IN:IN=eth1 OUT=eth0 SRC=192.168.0.4 DST=64.15.118.171 LEN=40 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=127 ID=37902 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=1307 DPT=80 WINDOW=17640 RES=0x00 ACK URGP=0 May 11 12:41:31 gatekeeper kernel: BANDWIDTH_IN:IN=eth1 OUT=eth0 SRC=192.168.0.4 DST=64.15.118.171 LEN=40 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=127 ID=37903 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=1307 DPT=80 WINDOW=17640 RES=0x00 ACK URGP=0 May 11 12:41:31 gatekeeper kernel: BANDWIDTH_OUT:IN=eth0 OUT=eth1 SRC=204.2.145.29 DST=192.168.31.1 LEN=1500 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=118 ID=2300 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=80 DPT=4697 WINDOW=32552 RES=0x00 ACK URGP=0

I think I have traced the "cause" of them to the file /etc/shorewall/start which contains the following four records;

run_iptables -I INPUT -i eth1 -j LOG --log-prefix BANDWIDTH_IN: --log-level 
debug
run_iptables -I FORWARD -i eth1 -j LOG --log-prefix BANDWIDTH_IN: --log-level 
debug
run_iptables -I FORWARD -o eth1 -j LOG --log-prefix BANDWIDTH_OUT: --log-level 
debug
run_iptables -I OUTPUT -o eth1 -j LOG --log-prefix BANDWIDTH_OUT: --log-level 
debug

But, I am not sure these are what is causeing the records tobe logged, and I can't figure out how to change them to stop the logging but keep the firewall operational.

Can anybody give me an assist?

Thanks,
Dennis
