Morning all :)

I was asked by a friend recently if log_in_vain messages could be redirected 
to another file besides /var/log/messages.  After doing some sleuthing I 
pretty much couldn't find anything.  The farthest I got was seeing in the 
source (/usr/src/sys/netinet/tcp_input.c) that log_in_vain logs as a kernel 
message at the info level.

So, my question is can one log all the output from log_in_vain to an alternate 
logfile easily, or would one have to hack the code to get it to work (not to 
mention possibly break something lol).

Thanks in advance for any insight :)

Cheers,
