[BlueOnyx:01048] Re: Iptables

[Greg Kuhnert]

Big suggestion to all BQ/BX owners: Check the mail in your ADMIN inbox 
periodically. This inbox gets stuff from activemonitor, many backup 
systems, email bounces, denyhosts, logwatch, quota warnings, yum ..... 
and so the list goes on.

In this case, dfix sends its information to cron, and cron sends an 
email to your admin account... Login there, and I think you'll find the 
answer to your question.

If you need further help, drop me a line.
