Details

in syslog-ng 1.6.7-1

syslog-ng logs iptables'log in /var/log/iptables.log but also in /var/log/messages.log

they are duplicates. The iptables'log appears too in dmesg ...

Fix:

i change the line 55 in /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf to

filter f_messages { level(info..warn) and not facility(auth, authpriv, mail, news) and not program(syslog-ng) and not match("IN=.*OUT=");};

so that syslog-ng doesn't log iptables log in messages.log

it works.
This task depends upon
