Search for 'dmesg -n 1' - I think that's what you're after.

Hello,

I have Linux RH 9.0 configured as filtering firewall, and getting a lot =
of
(kernel, iptables) messages on active consoles.
I have thought that putting in /etc/syslog.conf:

# *.kern /dev/console
kern.* /var/log/kernel
kern.* /dev/tty8

would free me from this, but it did not.
How can I force kernel message to appear only in /var/log/kernel log and =
on
tty8 only?

Best Regards
I hope that somebody will be able to help me.
When  I'm getting a lot of dropped packages it is not possible even to =
log.
