We now have rsyslog in the distribution. It should be simple to create a
configuration command that greps for iptables events and notifies the user in
realtime kind of the way that setroubleshoot does. As a matter of fact, what
might be even more useful is a command that watches for disk drive errors and
tells the user that its starting to see the hard drive fail.
But from a security point of view, I don't think its a good idea for apps to
be able to punch a hole in the firewall.
