      Hi folks,

      unfortunately I'm unable to check the firewalls' activity due to lack of logs in the systemlogs menu.
      What could be the cause for this behaviour?  ??? There are many rules at work, I'm running 2.0.2 release
      with ntop as only package.

      Greetings

        Under "Status: System logs: Settings", check "Log packets blocked by the default rule" if you want to see lots of entries ;)

        To verify the work of individual rules, you need to check "Log packets that are handled by this rule" for each rule you want to monitor.

        Note that the logs may not survive a reboot.

          Well, this is kind of embarrasing. Not a single rule had the hook set at "Log packets that are handled by this rule". Thank you very much
          for the hint Klaws!
