Hi
I am using squid and IP NAT for my local user in RHEL Advanc server. I am always getting a messge like
" IN=eht0 out=mac 00-of........, 00-de-...... SRC 72.24.7.148' DST=192.168.1.10 LEN=40 TOS=0X00 TTL=45 ID=39979 PROTO=TCP SPT=80....."

How to stop this message ?
Please advice me.

Best Regards
Shhaid

Shalom,

ITs web traffice, probably from a red hat box trying to connect to the red hat network.

I tried an reverse lookup for 72.24.7.148 and it does not looks like a Red Hat Network server:

148.7.24.72.in-addr.arpa name = 7-148.72-24-cpe.cableone.net

And cannot be contacted to the port 80 either.

Do you want to stop the traffic that generated the message, or the message it's self?

If you want to stop the message it's self, then look at your 'iptables' config, looking for any that '-j LOG'.

If you want to stop the traffic, then use 'iptables' to '-j DROP' the matching packets..
