Well... All I can say at this point is.... 1. I don't use :source 2. I log info from my dlink in a file which is not /var/log/messages and that is what I think you are trying to do. 3. These work just fine for me.... if $msg contains 'from 192.168.0.18' then ~ (discard messages which match) if $msg contains 'D-Link' then /var/log/dlink.log (log messages containing D-Link in dlink.log) or :msg, contains, "from 192.168.0.1" ~ :msg, contains, "D-Link" /var/log/dlink.log So.... Maybe you should post a copy of the entries that are filling up your /var/log/messages file? -- Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots.
