unwanted syslog messages

You might get more eyes on your post by posting in the advanced configuration section (Click here).

 

 

I assume that log message is from the bigd monitoring daemon. I'm not sure why it would be getting logged. Do you have verbose logging enabled for monitors (GUI: System >> Logs >> Options >> Monitors or CLI: 'b db Bigd.Debug)?

 

 

You could modify the filter you're using in syslog-ng to send syslog messages to your remote server. Here is an example:

 

 

filter f_my_remote_filter {

 

level (debug...emerg) and not match("Deleting icmp socket");

 

};
