[ale] Firewall logging

[bluejay at speedfactory.net (Jim Seymour)]

Hi All,

	I know this sounds like a really newbie question but here goes.  I 
have been looking around (google, redhat, etc.) trying to find out how to 
tell if someone is trying or has tried to get into your system.  I know 
there are files/logs that catch this however I cannot locate any that my 
system has.  This is a RedHat 7.3 system and it is not running a 
webserver.  I've looked at /var/log/messages however surely there is 
another/better option.  Netstat will only give me info on current 
connections, right?  I think the default firewall for this system is  
ipchains.

TIA,
