Description Lorinc Czegledi 2005-05-08 03:49:04 UTC

some little updates to the initscript and the ebuild could come handy:

create /etc/conf.d/p0f including:
P0FLOGFILE=/var/log/p0f-audit.log
P0FDEVICE=ppp0
P0FOPTIONS="-rtdl"

modded initscript:

start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --exec /usr/sbin/p0f -- -i "${P0FDEVICE}" "${P0FOPTIONS}" "${P0FLOGFILE}" "${BpfFilter}" >> "/var/log/p0f" 2>&1 &

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
will use output logfile as specified in conf.d

Thanks for reporting, in cvs.
By default, I am not using the -r option since the man pages recommend against
it. Also, the -d option requires -o.
