In 5.x, ipmon sends to security, not local0. Last I checked (5.1-R), there
was no way to change this. I submitted a post to -current, but nobody ever
responded.

I *really* like having my ipf logfiles filtered off into their own logfile.
I don't like being forced to send everything of the same facility.severity
to the same logfile.
