JFoster LQ Newbie Registered: Aug 2003 Posts: 6 Rep:	syslog, iptables, and customizing the output I've decided to log network traffic to /dev/tty6 while working on setting up iptables. Is there any way I can customize the output from iptables? For instance, can I just output the source IP & port, dest IP & port, and protocol? I don't need my friggin MAC address spewed out each time it logs something. Thanks for any help!
