Dear All.

I have download a script from this path "http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/wp-content/uploads/2006/06/fw.proxy.txt" and my Squid working as transparent proxy and also this script is working fine but the only problem is that, output from this script is continuously coming on all console so how do I redirect this out to /dev/null or any other way so that my console will be clean.

Regards.

How do you run script? This will only send output to console if syslogd is configured to send iptables output. Do you see packet drop messages?

Dear niXcraft.

I run this script through this command ./scriptname and the ouput at the console is
IN=eth1 OUT=MAC=ff:ff:ff:ff:00:10:7c:8a SRC=04.57.76.85.104 LEN=48 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL 105 ID=50853 PROTO=udp SPT=1026 DPT=1046....
like that only.

Regards.

Solution # 1
Find line

Code:

iptables -A INPUT -j LOG

Remove the same. It should fix the problem. and restart script

Solution # 2
You can modify /etc/syslog.conf file. Following is default for RHEL

Backup your exisiting file and put following and restart script. Now all packets should go to /var/log/messages

Code:

# Log all kernel messages to the console.
# Logging much else clutters up the screen.
#kern.*                                                 /dev/console
# Log anything (except mail) of level info or higher.
# Don't log private authentication messages!
*.info;mail.none;authpriv.none;cron.none                /var/log/messages
# The authpriv file has restricted access.
authpriv.*                                              /var/log/secure
# Log all the mail messages in one place.
mail.*                                                  -/var/log/maillog
# Log cron stuff
cron.*                                                  /var/log/cron
# Everybody gets emergency messages
*.emerg                                                 *
# Save news errors of level crit and higher in a special file.
uucp,news.crit                                          /var/log/spooler
# Save boot messages also to boot.log
local7.*

Sorry for delay, been busy with workload. Just follow rocky's #1 solution or open file /etc/syslog.conf or /etc/syslogd.conf and find out line which read as follows:

Code:

kern.*                                                 /dev/console

Comment out above line

Code:

#kern.*                                                 /dev/console

And restart syslogd

Code:

/etc/init.d/syslogd restart

Hello,

That is weird. Which distro you are using? Did you restart everything after changes? Login as normal user, if you don't see message than you are fine. Many distro turn on login for root user on console but for normal user there should not be any such message!

puppen · #9 (**permalink**) 12-02-2006, 09:37 PM

Dear Rocky.

I am using RHEL4.0, I have not checked with other users all console message are coming on root login.

regards.
