Re: [webmin-devel] Bandwidth rules required.

Ok .. in that case, you need to add firewall rules like :

iptables -A INPUT -i ppp0 -j LOG --log-prefix "BANDWIDTH_IN:" --log-level debug
iptables -A FORWARD -o ppp0 -j LOG --log-prefix "BANDWIDTH_OUT:" --log-level debug
iptables -A FORWARD -i ppp0 -j LOG --log-prefix "BANDWIDTH_IN:" --log-level debug
iptables -A OUTPUT -o ppp0 -j LOG --log-prefix "BANDWIDTH_OUT:" --log-level debug

at the tops of the appropriate chains. In Webmin, in the Linux Firewall module,
click on the Module Config link, and change the 'Directly edit firewall rules instead
of save file?' option to 'Yes' , so that it looks at the active rules instead
of any save file.

With this done, the bandwidth module should then prompt you to set up the syslog.conf
entry that it needs ..
