KMSGSD(8)						      System Manager's Manual							 KMSGSD(8)

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.

OPTIONS

       -c <config-file>
	      Specify path to config file instead of using the default configuration file /etc/psad/psad.conf.

       -D     Dump the configuration values that kmsgd derives from /etc/psad/psad.conf (or other override files) on STDERR.

       -h     Display usage information and exit.

       -O <config-file>
	      Override	config variable values that are normally read from the /etc/psad/psad.conf file with values from the specified file.  Mul-
	      tiple override config files can be given as a comma separated list.
