[Firehol-support] Re: Prepend to log prefix

[Costa Tsaousis]

Thanks.

However you can install ulogd and turn firehol log mode to ulog. Ulogd
generates a separate configuration file just for iptables, it has minimum
system requirements and requires minimum configuration. You just install
it and forget all about it...

Costa
