What should I do to enable firewall logging? I'm curious to see what
packets are being dropped.

My system is Redhat 7.1 on a laptop, connecting to an ISP over a dialup
modem. Install setting is maximum security.
rpm -q shows ipchains 1.3.10-7 and iptables 1.2.1a-1
lsmod shows ipchains (unused)

TIA

Peter
