You sure there is something that should be logging there that shortly after? Depending on what you're running, there isn't much that logs to system log once the system is up and running. The syslogd message is what is logged after syslog is restarted. After clearing log, and restarting Snort which generates a bunch of logs there, mine immediately show up. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org
