2.Add a parameter -uto the end of the line that starts the daemon:

syslogd -u

3.Save the file.

4.We also want to configure the system logger to use a spe- cific file for messages from the router. We'll assume that the router has been configured to use facility local5.

Edit /etc/syslog.conf and add a line for the router:

# Router is using local5
local5.*	/var/log/router.log

This says that all messages with facility local5 should be logged in /var/log/router.log. (Note that the two portions of the line in syslog must be separated by tabs. Don't put any spaces between the two.)

5.Now restart the system logger:

root# /System/Library/StartupItems/SystemLog/SystemLog restart

6.You should also be using a firewall to protect your server. Open the Sharing Preference pane in System Preferences.

7.Click on the Firewall tab and click New... to add a new rule.
