NAME
kmsgsd
- separates iptables messages from all other kernel messages.
SYNOPSIS
kmsgsd
DESCRIPTION
kmsgsd
reads messages from the /var/lib/psad/psadfifo named pipe and prints any firewall
related log messages to the psad data file "/var/log/psad/fwdata".
psad
cannot detect port scans or other suspect traffic without kmsgsd running on
the machine.
kmsgsd
uses the psad.conf configuration file which by default is
located at /etc/psad/psad.conf, but a different path can be specified
on the command line.
