      I have pfSense configured for remote syslogging to a Linux box where I use logwatch to parse the logs.

      I recently upgraded from pfSense 1.2.3 to 2.0, and have noticed that the format of pf logs to syslog has changed.

      While trying to update my logwatch scripts to accommodate this, I noticed that every log from pf seems to appear in the syslog twice. I'm not sure whether this is new since 2.0 or not, as I no longer have saved logs from prior to the upgrade.

      Is this a known issue, or am I just misunderstanding something?

          Hi,

          Sorry to tag on the end but you mentioned updated logwatch scripts, I'm trying to find some. Are you able to share yours?
