<![CDATA[Dynamic Firewall Log broken]]>The dynamic view of System Logs: Firewall appears to be broken. The first and subsequent updates present the same 4 lines from earlier in the log.  This affects the firewall log view in dashboard as well.

Splitting across a time boundary like Midnight is not something I have tested.

I'll have to take a look and see if I can tell where that bug might be. There are a couple other bugs in the log updating that I'm chasing anyhow.

Note my post above as to conditions under which this appears.

First attached image shows (if the crappy rez allows!) normal view firewall log with top 2 entries straddling 1 & 2 March.

Second image shows dynamic view after first update - the 2 March entry now at bottom of list and the last 1 March entry now at top.  Next update replaced the 2 March entry at list bottom with a duplicate of the 1 March entry, and so it goes.

I doubt this is peculiar to my setup but am happy to be proven wrong….

At present it displays 16 lines back in log.

Guess I should have done that before reporting, though it did carry the behaviour across an upgrade.

Will keep an eye out for a repeat…..

thanks

It's fine on a box I've got from about 10 days ago. I'm updating it now to try again.
