Is there a "new line" option for firewall logs?

Howdy all!

:)

A colleague highly recommend UTM 9 to me because he runs a commercial version for CIPA compliance at several facilities and one at his house for his family cannot say enough about it. After getting my box up and running, I must say that I am *extremely* impressed it and I am eager to flatten my learning curve.

Using the web interface, is there a way to see why the offending host's packets were dropped?

For example, host 93.189.156.232 has 79 packets that were dropped. However, when I click on the host, all I get shown is a listing of ports that the host tried to connect to on the UTM.

Going to the actual logfile, I can see that the host was trying to send email:

To restate my original qestion, how can I see what the host was trying to do via the web interface? I suppose what I am looking for is something that said that 93.189.156.232 tried to connect using SMTP and was denied ...

[s]For the logfile text, is there an option to new line the logfile instead of putting it out as a glob of text?[/s]
meh, the lack of newline is a notepad issue. Firefox and notepad++ displayed it a-okay. Disregard. :)

Thanks!
