      Hi,
      I install pfsense to harddisk and want to write log file to local disk instead ram disk (Don't use syslog server).

        You can't.  pfSense isn't designed to work that way.  Use a remote syslog server.

          You "could" set up a syslog server onthe pfSense itself.
          A quick google gives this: http://www.tutorialized.com/view/tutorial/Setup-a-Syslog-Server/36094

          However this is NOT SUPPORTED and you are on your own if you have problems.
          Also it might introduce security breaches.

          We do what we must, because we can.
