 # Purpose: psad makes use of iptables logs to detect port scans,
 #          probes for backdoors and DDoS tools, and other suspect traffic
-#          (many signatures were adapted from the snort intrusion
-#          detection system).  Data is provided by kmsgsd which reads
-#          firewall messages out of the /var/lib/psad/psadfifo named pipe
-#          (syslog is reconfigured to write kern.info messages there
-#          which include firewall messages).  For more information read
-#          the psad man page or view the documentation provided at:
-#          http://www.cipherdyne.org.
