Firewall and dmesg
 
I'm pretty newbie in firewall script but I want to know if there are any ways to force my firewall to log in a files instead of logging in dmesg.

Add an entry in /etc/syslog.conf
kern.*<tab><tab>/var/log/<filenameToLogTo>
and restart syslogd.
If you want to be precise, and your firewall binary hasn't been tweaked to use a different loglevel you could use "kern.info" instead as thats the std logfacility/level.
