I'm fully aware that what I'm doing is just fiddling around, OK?

I'm quite accustomed to Firestarter and know how to view that log, and I'm also aware that for the most part there is no need to view any log at all other than the iptables log, so this is a want ........ not a need! Suffice it to say I like to fiddle around:-({|=

So I know I can enable ufw by

sudo ufw enable

and enable logging by

sudo ufw logging on

Where I get lost is how to view the ufw log! Or is it even different from the iptables log:confused:

With fwlogwatch & postfix installed I can get the following by just running:

sudo fwlogwatch

Still not quite what I'm looking for.
