Firewall

From KallestadWiki

My firewall logs grow at an enormous rate. And I have no idea how to interperet them! This started to bother me as I was building my qmail installation, so I looked for and found a pretty decent analysis tool called fwAnalog. fwAnalog requires Analog which is a popular logfile analysis utility that I have absolutely no experience with.

The end result of the installation is some web pages with pretty graphs that help to explain what the heck your firewall is doing. The image at the right is a small section of the output provided. Since my own personal installation is locked away in the admin area, you can have a peek at this sample report to get a better idea at what you would eventually be looking at if you decided to install the application.
