Hello:

I have started using your version of WW that has been configured to work
with the Watchguard FireBox SOHO Firewall appliance series. I am glad I can
return to WW as my log viewer.

However, I do have a little concern about the WW Remote Name/Message column
of the log viewer and the message that could be given in that area when the
*inbound* traffic is going to the External IP of the WG and it's actually
being discarded by the FW. I wonder if a message can so indicate that
action as I know that is what is in the WG logs and that message was being
shown by the other log viewer I was using.

If there are any other messages that concern a discard or blocking action
for inbound or outbound that can be placed in the message area, it would be
very good. Maybe, it can be an optional setting when the router selection
is set to WG.

Duane :)
