Thank you so much!!!!!!!! Do I do this on /etc/syslog.conf?? I looked and a part looks like this:
local5.debug /pix/dcpixlog
local4.debug /pix/pixlog
local3.debug /usr/log/cache/cachelog
local2.debug /var/log/ras/raslog
local1.debug /var/log/vpn/vpnlog
!
The local5 is what I added just a few days ago...The local1 and local2 are no longer used. Not sure about local3...local4 is most important that is all existing FW. Supposedly the local5 was for new FW. Do, I comment all above and add what you wrote?
