Hi

I've been trying to use pfNotifyHandler .

I give it a level of PFNFY_WARN, and then get it
to parse, within the handler I give it, the value
of pfNotifyData.severity, to see what the severity is.

This always appears to have the value 3, although the error
message strings appear to be quite different, from an innocuous
"loaded town.flt", all the way up to a "caught SIGCHLD. Exiting due to death of
child with pid 2394"

What I am trying to do is to use the notification of severity to see whether
or not I should kill off all the processes I have started up, but,
if severity is always returned as three, I have no way of knowing what
the program state is.

Does anyone know of any funnies with the pfNotifyhandler.

Thanks
Ricahrd
