Decoding /var/log/messages
« on: March 29, 2001, 10:05:54 PM »
Does anyone know of a reference that will allow me to decode the entries in the messages file? Specifically I want to understand messages like these:

Mar 28 13:34:35 mfsi1267 kernel: Packet log: denylog DENY eth0 PROTO=17 192.168.2.6:137 192.168.2.255:137 L=96 S=0x00 I=0 F=0x0000 T=128 (#1)
Mar 28 13:34:35 mfsi1267 kernel: Packet log: denylog DENY eth0 PROTO=17 192.168.2.6:137 192.168.2.255:137 L=96 S=0x00 I=1 F=0x0000 T=128 (#1)

Thanks
