CU201 Testing - No firewall logs displayed although they are in the messages file

[Adolf Belka]

Hi All,

There was a forum post about not finding any output in the WUI Firewall Logs with CU201 Testing.

I did some testing and found that the logs were displayed in the WUI if I was working with an IPFire that had been updated from CU200 to CU201 Testing but when I did a fresh install of CU201 Testing then the logs were not displayed.

Doing a fresh install of CU200 showed the logs as normal in the WUI.

I checked the /var/log/messages file with the fresh install of CU201 Testing and found that there were firewall logging messages in there but the problem is that the starting section of the log lines with a fresh install of CU201 Testing is

Apr  1 15:54:23 ipfire klogd: DROP_INPUT IN=red0

while for CU200 or a CU201 Testing updated from CU200 it is

Apr  1 16:13:59 ipfire kernel: DROP_INPUT IN=red0

So the process name has changed from kernel: to klogd: but only for the fresh install of CU201 Testing.

I have been unable to identify if this was intended to be changed or not and if intended why it is not in the upgraded version.

So this is to ask if anyone knows why this would be occurring and what should be the expected status?

Regards,

Adolf.
