Iptables default log file (都是常用单词，就不译了吧)
For example, if you type the following command, it will display current iptables log from /var/log/messages file:
引用：# tail -f /var/log/messages
Output:
引用：
Oct 4 00:44:28 debian gconfd (vivek-4435): Resolved address "xml:readonly:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults" to a read-only configuration source at position 2

Procedure to log the iptables messages to a different log file
Open your /etc/syslog.conf file:
引用：# vi /etc/syslog.conf
Append following line
引用：
kern.warning /var/log/iptables.log
Save and close the file.
Restart the syslogd (Debian / Ubuntu Linux):
引用：# /etc/init.d/sysklogd restart
On the other hand, use following command to restart syslogd under Red Hat/Cent OS/Fedora Core Linux:
引用：# /etc/init.d/syslog restart
Now make sure you pass the log-level 4 option with log-prefix to iptables. For example:
引用：# DROP everything and Log it
iptables -A INPUT -j LOG –log-level 4
iptables -A INPUT -j DROP
For example, drop and log all connections from IP address 64.55.11.2 to your /var/log/iptables.log file:
引用：
iptables -A INPUT -s 64.55.11.2 -m limit --limit 5/m --limit-burst 7 -j LOG –log-prefix ‘** HACKERS **’ --log-level 4
iptables -A INPUT -s 64.55.11.2 -j DROP
Where,
* –log-level 4: Level of logging. The level # 4 is for warning.
* –log-prefix ‘*** TEXT ***’: Prefix log messages with the specified prefix (TEXT); up to 29 letters long, and useful for distinguishing messages in the logs.
You can now see all iptables message logged to /var/log/iptables.log file:
引用：# tail -f /var/log/iptables.log
