Thanks, both of you!

Yep, I'm aware of ulogd; however I prefer not installing stuff/tweaking
things on my router if I don't have to.

Didn't know about libnetfilter_log; I might indeed have a look at
libnetfilter_log to see if I can incorporate that into my FPC program.
If I do, I'll get back to you, Ido.

The alternative would be to parse the syslog output which I was thinking
about. Though it's not very pretty, the advantage of that is that I can
forward my router's syslog to another (database,... whatever) host and
run the extraction there...

Thanks,
Reinier
