<![CDATA[Syslog vs Growl?]]>I have used Syslog before for the router to communicate with the main terminal and I have recently discovered Growl. Can anyone explain to me the differences of what pfSense would communicate through Syslog vs. Growl.

Additionally, how would I be able to test if Growl is receiving information from pfSense, is there a command line I could send through pfSense to Growl so I know if it is working or not?

If you want to test it, go to Diagnostics > Command and enter:

file_notice("test", "Test notification");
