Just did some tests again and re-checked `/var/log/messages`. I noticed that HAProxy now writes proper logs into the syslog file. Don’t ask me how this happened, I do not know. I did not change anything on my side, not even restarted IPFire, HAproxy or anything else. An entry in `messages` now looks like. You should notice that `localhost.localdomain` disappeared and now reads `localhost`. ```auto Sep 19 19:30:55 localhost haproxy[13742]: 100.20.194.139:46494 http_https~ collab_server/collab01 207 1821 --VN “PROPFI ND /dav.php/calendars/family/holiday/ HTTP/1.1” ``` Wait a minute: I’ve written [here](https://bugzilla.ipfire.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12922#c18) that the file /etc/hosts looks like: > 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost > 172.17.0.1 gateway I had a look again and now there is a totally different content! > 127.0.0.1 localhost > 192.168.0.1 ipfire.ourhome ipfire > 172.17.0.1 gateway So how on earth did this content found it’s way into this file? Ah!!! A few days ago I’ve edited the hosts list in WebIf, inserted one single host. I assume that this action did re-write the file `/etc/hosts`, too. Presumably with the correct content! I do not know, so devs please check this yourself if necessary. But why has there been some unusual content before? --- _[View the full topic](https://community.ipfire.org/t/unbound-and-other-programs-logging/654)._
