Hi,
currently we're using 'logwatch 7.5.4' on IPFire firewall systems.
Considering the 'dhcp' entries, we're receiving bug reports about
logwatch logs containing unknown messages like this:
[IPFire Bug List /
#12242](https://bugzilla.ipfire.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12242):
Unknown Entries:
reuse_lease: lease age 0 (secs) under 25% threshold, reply with
unaltered, existing lease for 10.0.0.21: 1 Time(s)
reuse_lease: lease age 3 (secs) under 25% threshold, reply with
unaltered, existing lease for 10.0.0.27: 1 Time(s)
Comment in https://community.ipfire.org/t/dhcp-server-unknown-entries/211:
"This seems to be the case while the dhcp server logs if a client asks
too early for a still existing lease. There is usally nothing wrong with
the network."
Could this be fixed by altering 'logwatch-7.5.4\scripts\services\dhcpd'?
Best,
Matthias Fischer
