Description
(moved from cvstrac # 1740)
Is it possible to add the option of changing which syslog facility the firewall messages are sent on? It appears that it uses local0, but it would be nice to be able to customize it.

Possible fix for this. I am not checking to see if the filter facility duplicates one of the fixed-purpose ones. If that is an issue, let me know. Also, I noticed after I generated the diff and shut down the VM, I probably should have moved the setting of the filterstr variable to after the 'isset' check just after it.
- Target version set to 2.1
- Target version changed from 2.1 to Future
In addition to facility, everything comes through as "warning" currently where some logs should be marked as informational. May justify a separate ticket at some point but sort of along the same lines.
- Status changed from New to Closed
- Target version deleted (
Future)
facility is partially how syslogd splits log files, not worth doing
