Aye! That makes sense. I shouldn't do these things when I'm overtired :-)

Thanks to you and Jason... I got it now.

Enjoy your evening!

Hi Randy,

Your expression rejects all packets, as Jason said.  I think you want
to use "or" instead of "and" there.

Daemonlogger uses the same BPF file format as all libpcap-derived
programs (tcpdump, snort, etc).  I guess I should mention that in the
docs. :)  If you want to read up on it before I get an update out the
door just 'man tcpdump' and it should all be in there.

I have a question about the file format for bpf filtering with Daemonlogger.

The syntax isn't described anywhere. However, this is what I know.

"port 80 and port 8080" works fine for the -f command line inclusion.

"port 80 and port 8080 and port 8181" throws this error:

    expression rejects all packets

So, I guess my question really is: what is the proper formatting/syntax
for BPF usage in Daemonlogger?

Thanks!
Randy
