When using ULOGD to manage the firewall logfiles, it displays the wrong date on the logs,This is confirmed by several people, please see here: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?p=720586#720586 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install ULOGD ( latest stable version on portage ) 2. Configure ULOGD to manage the firewall logs like its described in shorewall.net 3.observe the logs files with tail -f /var/log/ulogd/ulogd.system Actual Results: The timestamp on the logs is static at : Jan 26 19:45:32 Expected Results: The correct timestamp which the system is using, that would be "Dec 20 20:20:12" firewall used is shorewall ( www.shorewall.net ) ULOGD from http://gnumonks.org/projects/ulogd Gentoo linux, tested with both 2.4 kernel series and 2.6 additional information can be supplied by request.
I wonder, if it's doing the old style date -d instead of the new style
1.02 should fix the date printout. I'm unmasking it now.
I'm using ulogd 1.02 (from portage) but I still have this problem. The datestamp on my shorewall-2.0.4 messages in /var/log/ulogd.syslogemu is fixed at "Jan 1 10:00:00".
Apologies, I didn't search properly. Relevant bug is here: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56729 Hopefully upgrading my kernel (development-sources-2.6.7) will fix things.
