Eleminating output to console
I am running Shorewall firewall config program to utilize iptables on a Debian 3.3.5 system. This system is setup for a getway/router. I am getting a message:
Shorewall:bogons
rop:IN=eth0 OUT= MAC+ mac address of eth0 SRC:someinternetIP DST=MYIPADD LEN=61 TOS+0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=114 ID=6673 PROTO=ICMP TYPE=8 CODE=0 ID=512 SEQ=59628
on any tty connection that is onscreen.
Apparantly this is the log from an internet ip that has been hijacked/stolen. I prefer to keep the server as tight as possible, however this is gettting annoying. A friend informed me of commenting out the console portion of /etc/syslog.conf, but this didn't work (I commmented out the whole file).
Anyone have any ideas on how to eliminate log entry from appearing on my console all the time??
Thanks in advance,
Peter

SHOREWALL-PROXYARP(5) [FIXME: manual] SHOREWALL-PROXYARP(5)
NAME
proxyarp - Shorewall Proxy ARP file
SYNOPSIS
/etc/shorewall/proxyarp
DESCRIPTION
This file is used to define Proxy ARP. There is one entry in this file for each IP address to be proxied.
The columns in the file are as follows.
ADDRESS - address
IP Address.
INTERFACE - interface (Optional as of Shorewall 4.4.16)
Local interface where system with the ip address in ADDRESS is connected. This column is only required when HAVEROUTE is set to No (no)
or is left empty.
EXTERNAL - interface
External Interface to be used to access this system from the Internet.
HAVEROUTE - [-|Yes|No]
If there is already a route from the firewall to the host whose address is given, enter Yes or yes in this column. Otherwise, enter no
or No or leave the column empty and Shorewall will add the route for you. If Shorewall adds the route, its persistence depends on the
value of thePERSISTENT column contains Yes; otherwise, shorewall stop or shorewall clear will delete the route.
PERSISTENT - [-|Yes|No]
If HAVEROUTE is No or no, then the value of this column determines if the route added by Shorewall persists after a shorewall stop or a
shorewall clear. If this column contains Yes or yes then the route persists; If the column is empty or contains No or no then the route
is deleted by shorewall stop or shorewall clear.
EXAMPLE
Example 1:
Host with IP 155.186.235.6 is connected to interface eth1 and we want hosts attached via eth0 to be able to access it using that
address.
#ADDRESS INTERFACE EXTERNAL
155.186.235.6 eth1 eth0
