I commented out ALL the log paths of syslog-ng.conf and rebootet which results in empty log files but still console logging.
Then I tried klogd -c 0 (which should stop klogd from logging to the console if it is not extremely important) as well as stopping klogd completely which has no visible effect either.
Comment out any destination lines with console in them (xconsole is a default debian destination IIRC). Now there should be no way for syslog-ng to send the kernel messages to the console. Another thing to consider is that perhaps these messages aren't going through /proc/kmesg but through STDOUT/STDERR. I've never really thought about stopping iptables output to the console before. Kill syslog-ng and see if they still go there. You might be on the wrong track with syslog. -- Nate Campi http://www.campin.net
